Blue Flag Beaches in Italy

Latest page update: 6 December 2024

By Dion Protani

The Blue Flag beaches in Italy are those that have been awarded the Bandiera Blu each year by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE). The award relates to the quality of the water at beaches, marinas, lakes and other waterside locations.

Every year on June 5, the latest locations to have been given the updated award are announced. In 2021 there were a total of more than 4,000 beaches worldwide with the Blue Flag in 50 countries.

Italy boasted 416 of those by itself, shared among 201 of its municipalities known as comuni. You can view the 2021 list either by specific beache or municipality via the green buttons below.
