Blue Flag and Beaches of Fine Quality in Malta
Up until recently, one could freely organize BBQs on the beach. But some local councils have banned this privilege in an attempt to obtain the Blue Flag or the Beach of Quality status.
These eco-labels enhance the quality of the beaches and their facilities, making sure that the beach is clean, secure and accessible to all.
In Malta, St. George’s Bay and Bugibba have the Blue Flag award, while Mellieha Bay and Golden Bay have obtained the Beach of Quality status.
Other beaches are being upgraded continually to safeguard the aesthetics and the ecological value of the sites.
