With 430 blue flag winning beaches, Greece in 2017 maintained its second position in the world among 50 countries. First emerged the prefecture of Halkidiki in Greece this year, with 52 flags.
Blue Flags are symbols of trust and environmental conscience.
Definition of a Blue Flag Beach
A beach can be eligible for the Blue Flag if it is a nationally (or internationally) officially designated bathing area with at least one sampling point for water quality analyses.
The name and boundaries of the beach follow the official national recognitions. The beach must have the necessary facilities and standards to comply with the Blue Flag criteria. A responsible person in the local authority must be appointed to deal with the relations to the Blue Flag Programme.
