In a mix of sustainability and seaside glamour, Tel Aviv-Yafo’s coastline has once again earned the prestigious Blue Flag certification for 2025. All 13 beaches, from iconic Gordon Beach to the laid-back Alma stretch, meet the highest international standards for environmental quality, safety, and accessibility—reaffirming the city’s place on the global map of responsible yet indulgent travel.
Awarded by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) and implemented in Israel by EcoOcean, the Blue Flag is the world’s leading eco-label for beaches.
At Tel Aviv, it’s not just about sands and clear waters. Its shores are managed with a focus on sustainable practices, from banning disposable plastic bags and utensils at bathing beaches to placing educational signage that encourages eco-friendly behaviour among visitors.
Tel Aviv's unique ability to balance luxury with consciousness sets it apart. Whether lounging at a chic beach club, paddleboarding into the golden sunset, or enjoying fresh Mediterranean cuisine barefoot in the sand, the city offers a memorable experience where leisure meets purpose.
The Blue Flag status, reassessed annually, assures travellers that every beach they step onto in Tel Aviv upholds excellence in cleanliness, safety, and environmental care. For the global traveller looking to indulge responsibly, Tel Aviv delivers, combining urban energy, stylish design, and ecological awareness along a 14-kilometre Mediterranean coastline.
So, as summer approaches, consider Tel Aviv not just for its nightlife and historic charm, but for its pioneering coastal ethos.
