PLETTENBERG BAY NEWS - While Plettenberg Bay might be a small coastal town, it is big on preserving its natural beauty, which became evident as the town was awarded Blue Flag status for six of its beaches.
“The iconic Blue Flag is one of the world’s most recognised beach, marina and sustainable tourism operator campaigns that recognises the commitment to stringent environmental, educational, safety and accessibility criteria,” said Patty Butterworth, chief executive of Plett Tourism.
“As a world-class beach destination, we share this excitement with key role players who are committed to maintaining our Blue Flag status. This includes the Bitou Municipal beach development team, our marine activities and conservation initiatives. It is such a pleasure to be able to share our most valuable asset with the world.”
The beaches that will be proudly flying a Blue Flag in the 2021-2022 season are Robberg 5 (12th year), Keurboomstrand (10th year), Nature’s Valley (9th year), Lookout (7th year), The Dunes (5th year) and The Singing Kettle beach (4th year). Keurboomstrand also received a special award for having reached 10 years of Blue Flag status.
