Buying a home in Liguria, near Italy’s cleanest sea
Blue Flags of 2021, certification of excellence for the Ligurian Sea
Liguria has amazing sea views and breathtaking landscapes – a must-see visbile from luxury properties for sale listed by Broker Immobiliare Exclusive Real Estate – as well as crystal-clear waters and a sea with proven excellence, which makes the Ligurian Coast number the best out of all the Italian regions.
In 2021, the factors that led the international NGO FEE (Foundation for Enviromnental Education, founded in Denmark in 1981) to award Liguria again – affirming the 32 Blue Flag locations of last year – are certainly the sea, which has been deemed excellent for the past four years, as well as the efficient water purification; separate waste collection; large pedestrian areas; bike lanes; street furniture; and manicured green spaces. What’s more, evaluation criteria for this “quality seal” includes the number and quality of hotels, public healthcare facilities and service, tourism information, well-kept road signs, and environmental education.
With 32 Blue Flag location, Liguria is at the top of the national ranking, followed by Campania’s 19 locations, Tuscany and Puglia’s 17 locations, and Marche’s 16 locations. Calabria’s locations have increased to 15, while Sardinia’s 14 locations have been affirmed. Abruzzo’s locations have increased to 13, Lazio’s to 11, and Trentino and Sicily’s 10 locations have been affirmed. Veneto’s 9 locations have been affirmed, while Emilia-Romagna has 7 flags. Basilicata has 5 flags, while Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Piedmont have 2 flags. Molise and Lombardy still have 1 flag.
