The Blue flag is an international award for beach excellence which is operated in Ireland by An Taisce-The National Trust for Ireland on behalf of the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE).

The Blue Flag is one of the world’s most recognised eco-labels. It is presented to beaches which have excellent water quality and which achieve high standards across a wide set of criteria relating to water quality, information provision, environmental education, safety and beach management.

County Wicklow received three Blue Flags this year for its beaches at Greystones South Beach, Brittas Bay North and Brittas Bay South.

Well done to all who helped keep our South beach clean!

    Well done and congratulations to all the people in Greystones and all the visitors, who help to keep Greystones South Beach clean by bringing home their litter or putting it in the bin. Never throw litter people!

    I really enjoy playing on Greystones South Beach. No rubbish really improves it, so let’s keep it rubbish free. I love to swim too. The water is getting warmer. From a distance the sea is a lovely view. You can see the waves.

    We went to the beach today. We were very proud and excited to see the Blue Flag flying high in the sky.
