BLUE FLAG CERTIFIED

Sweden flagBlue Flag Certified in Sweden

Blue Flag is Europe's oldest and most recognized beach certification, awarded each season by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) to beaches that pass a strict annual audit across four areas: water quality, environmental management, safety and services, and environmental education. A beach doesn't earn the flag once and keep it forever; it is re-assessed every year, so a Blue Flag badge on this site means the beach met the standard for the current season, not just at some point in the past.

Below are 6 Blue Flag beaches currently indexed across Europe, drawn from our full directory of 737 coastal locations. Use the country and sea-temperature filters to narrow down to your trip, as every listing links through to full detail including water temperature, sand type, and nearby car rental options.
