Wales Coast Awards for 2024 have been Announced

Beaches are visited, tested and reviewed every year and awards are given to those that meet and maintain the highest environmental standards, pass a high level of water quality testing, are kept clean and attractive.

Blue Flag Award - Blue Flag is an iconic environmental award trusted by millions around the globe. Since it launched 1987, Blue Flag has transformed water quality, cleanliness, safety and services.

Seaside Yellow Flag Award - The national standard for the best beaches across the UK. These are awarded for clean, attractive and well managed coastal areas.

Green Flag Award - For all the beautiful, untouched and rugged beaches that tend to offer less facilities, and therefore unable to win Blue or Seaside Awards. They are awarded for excellent water quality and are held to high environmental standards.

Wales boasts some of the prettiest, cleanest and most diverse beaches and coves in the UK. It has more Blue Flag beaches per mile than anywhere else in the UK!
