This year, an impressive 20 Blue Flags have been awarded to beaches across Mallorca, recognising their top-notch cleanliness, safety, facilities and environmental care – key ingredients for a perfect family beach day. The Blue Flag is awarded annually by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) and based on 32 criteria, including family friendly favourites:
💦 Pristine Water Quality: Regular testing to ensure safe, clean waters for swimming
🛟 Safety and Services: Trained lifeguard professionals to keep a watchful eye on busy beaches in the high season (& adequate lifesaving equipment available at more remote spots).
