The Wales Coast Awards play a vital role in protecting our precious marine environment and are recognised around the world as a symbol of quality. We’ve managed the Blue Flag, Green Coast Award and Seaside Award for more than 20 years.
To attain one of these prestigious awards a beach, marina or tourism boat operator must meet and maintain the highest environmental standards and achieve tough water quality targets.
The Wales Coast Awards are a guarantee to visitors that they’ve arrived at a top destination.
With an increasing number of people deciding to holiday at home, the award-winning locations are not only an incredible part of Wales; they serve as an attraction for local businesses.
Hotels and guest houses
If your hotel or guest house is located by an awarded beach, your visitors will be guaranteed a clean, attractive, and well managed stretch of coastline. Along with the Coast Awards, the Foundation for Environmental Education also develops another eco-label for accommodations: the Green Key award.
Tourist attractions
Promote the Coast Awards as part of your attraction and celebrate our beautiful coastline.
Shops and restaurants
The Coast Awards are the nationwide standard for the best beaches and a fantastic promotional tool for your business.
