In 2025 in Andalucia there has been two inland beaches awarded with Blue Flag beaches recognition.

The Blue flag awards have grown remarkably since their beginings in France in the mid 80's. The requirements for certification have also widened. Most coatal municipalities in Andalucia sumbit an application in the autumn of the previous year, receive an inspection visit and commit not just to clean bathing water but public showers, life-guards, signage and environmental awareness programmes. It has become necessary for town halls to carefully select their potential Blue Flag beaches for infrastructure investment ahead of the Blue Flag application. The successful applications are listed on the four 'costas' pages linked below. Unsuccesful aplication are not disclosed.
