The European Environmental Education Foundation (ADEAC) has announced its awards for 2017's blue flag beaches and once again Arona will be celebrating at the inclusion of two of the municipality's beaches after the flags were regained last year, and Santiago del Teide will be thrilled that Playa La Arena will fly a bandera azul for the thirtieth consecutive year – one every year that the awards have been presented

This year's 14 flags go to El Médano in Granadilla; Torviscas, Fañabé, and El Duque in Adeje; Las Vistas and Los Cristianos in Arona; Playa y Calas de la Jaquita in Guía de Isora; Playa La Arena in Santiago del Teide; El Socorro in Los Realejos; San Telmo in Puerto de la Cruz; La Arena-Mesa del Mar in Tacoronte; and the Piscinas de Bajamar in La Laguna. There are also blue flags for the sports ports of Los Gigantes and the Real Club Náutico de Tenerife.

Anyone bored can compare this with the rest of Spain here which has its usual bewildering bar charts and tables. At the bottom is a complete list of the 579 beaches in Spain.  :kyawn:

It is semantically totally meaningless but grammatically totally correct. Composed by Noam Chomsky in 1957 (Except he can't spell "colour"). People argue about whether it has the same level of meaning as "The King of France is bald" which is also meaningless because there is no king of France. Please don't ask me for more information.

Does anyone else find it humourous that a blue flag has been awarded to a beach called El Socorro?  :giggle:
If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know amazing.
