* The source adds the following information: "The 'Blue Flag' labels are awarded to ports, while those for beaches are granted to the municipalities that apply for them (thus, it is the municipalities that are counted)."
The source also adds: "This private label takes into account water quality and waste management, as well as environmental education. The French Office of the Foundation for Environmental Education in Europe created it in 1985. It reconciles tourism and the environment by supporting coastal and inland municipalities in raising awareness and educating users about the environment at their vacation spots."
