Blue Flag Beaches In Thailand

[Utterlyuseful]

I wonder if Pattaya or any Thai beaches could meet these criteria

---------

WATER QUALITY

• The beach must fully comply with the water quality sampling and frequency requirements
• The beach must fully comply with the standards and requirements for water quality analysis
• No industrial, waste-water or sewage-related discharges should affect the beach area
• The beach must comply with the Blue Flag requirements for the microbiological parameter faecal coli bacteria (E.coli) and intestinal enterococci/streptococci
• The beach must comply with the Blue Flag requirements for the following physical and chemical parameters

---------

A list of all requirements can be seen on this site (note: gogo bars are no listed as a requirement)

I expect to see a lot of "official" blue flags flying in the near future once the word gets out!

If you see 'blue flags' waving on Jomtien and Pattaya beaches....

It will be because the city bought them to promote tourism,

but there will be no change in poor water quality!

better to hold up a white flag to the beaches here....

I take it the 'w' is a typo.

The key you wanted is just below it.
