La Plage du Trez Blue Flag label

Since May 2023, Bénodet has proudly held the Blue Flag label for the Plage du Trez, an international accolade that testifies to the environmental quality of our coastline and our commitment to more sustainable tourism.

An environmental quality label

Created in 1985, the Blue Flag label is awarded each year to towns and marinas that meet demanding criteria in terms of environmental management,education for sustainable development, quality of bathing water, cleanliness of beaches andsustainable tourist facilities.

Today, this is a reliable benchmark for holidaymakers concerned about preserving nature and the quality of their holiday destination.

Bénodet awarded the label again

In Bénodet, this label rewards the concrete and ongoing efforts made by the commune and its partners to preserve the resort’s exceptional living environment.

The quality of the bathing water on the Trez beach is rigorously monitored. A daily clean-up is carried out during the summer season, and a number ofpublicawareness campaigns are run to preserve the coastline: sorting waste, managing cigarette butts, preserving the dunes and biodiversity.

Environmental information panels, selective collection systems and ecological events are just some of the initiatives put in place to make Bénodet an exemplary seaside resort.

A collective commitment

Obtaining and maintaining the Blue Flag in Bénodet is based on a collective dynamic: elected representatives, municipal services, the Tourist Office, local associations, schools and residents work together to improve practices every year and step up awareness-raising initiatives.

A responsible choice

The Blue Flag label guarantees visitors clean beaches, quality bathing water and a natural environment that is respected. It is also an invitation to everyone to adopt simple but essential measures to preserve a pleasant living environment.
