Blue Flag for beaches and marinas is an international environmental programme for the protection of the sea and coastal areas, whose primary objective is the sustainable management and governance of the sea and the coastline. today, Blue Flag is a highly respected tourist label. It is the most recognised model of environmental education and informing the public, when it comes to protecting the sea and the coast, especially the coastal areas under the grea-test pressure - beaches and marinas.
Blue Flag is an acknowledgment awarded for only one season, and for it to be obtained, the application has to be submitted in a pres-cribed manner every year. the implementation of the Blue Flag pro-gramme is based on strictly defined criteria. Although national and international inspections are conducted during the season, guests and users of Blue Flag beaches and marinas are encouraged to notify the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) if they notice that the defined criteria are not being met. In Istria, the number of Blue Flags increases every year, so far 43 beaches and 6 marinas have been awarded one.
