11 beaches in Malta and Gozo have been awarded the Blue Flag ecolabel by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) International Blue Flag Jury in Copenhagen.
The International Jury took into consideration the COVID pandemic and the restrictions on many of the Blue Flag beaches across the world last year. In some specific countries the Blue Flag granted dispensation cases aligned with the non-compliances due to the pandemic.
Malta and Gozo followed these restriction in a good manner keeping in mind the safety of beach users in mind. This was to be commended, the jury said.
