Liguria leads Italy’s Blue Flag league


LIGURIA in north-west #Italy – otherwise known as the #ItalianRiviera – has the most Blue Flag beaches of any Italian region for the sixth year in a row.

The crescent shaped region between the French Riviera and Tuscany is dotted with sandy beaches, 23 of which have won the Blue Flag designation, three more than last year.

Blue Flag status is given to beaches with high standards of water quality, safety, and environmental education. New beach entries for Liguria this year are Taggia, located Liguria's very western edge near the French border, Borghetto Santo Spirito, to the west of Genoa, and Santa Margherita Ligure.

Other Blue Flag beaches on the region’s 200-miles coastline range from Finale Ligure in the west to Lerici Beach in the east.
