When you see a Blue Flag flying, you know you are at a world class beach…and again such a flag is flying at Sudbury’s Bell Park.

to receive a Blue Flag, beaches and marinas have to achieve high standards in water quality, environmental management, environmental education, and safety and services.

Environmental Defence has awarded the Blue Flag to more than 4,000 beaches and marinas in 49 countries around the world.

The Blue Flag was first awarded to the main beach at Bell Park last year.
