Six beaches in Co. Wexford received the prestigious ‘Blue Flag’ at a ceremony this afternoon at Ravenport Resort, Curracloe.
The six beaches on the Wexford coastline that received the Blue Flags are; Curracloe Beach, Carne Beach, Morriscastle Beach, Rosslare Strand, Ballineskar Beach and Ballymoney North Beach, who regained the Blue Flag having lost it in 2024, but now regained after they recorded an improved annual water quality rating, now deemed to be excellent.
Ms. Cathy Baxter, Director of Education and Community Action at An Taisce said; “We were delighted to be back in the sunny Southeast once again, to present The Blue Flag and Green Coast Award Flags for the 2025 season.
“We would like to congratulate all the Local Authorities, marina operators and Clean Coasts groups responsible for managing the awarded beaches and marinas to the excellent standards required,” concluded Ms. Baxter.
