County Wicklow's Blue Flag Beaches 2025

Wicklow County Council welcomes An Taisce's award of Blue Flags for Greystones South, Brittas Bay North, and Brittas Bay South beaches in recognition of the excellent water quality and facilities available at these bathing areas.

The An Taisce Blue Flags programme has consistently demanded excellent water quality for over four years.

The maritime coastline of Wicklow is one of the county’s prized assets in our tourist attractions. Our beaches and harbours are a focal point for various activities including surfing, swimming, angling, sailing and day trippers.

The Blue Flag emblem guarantees visitors a very high environmental quality, not just in terms of bathing water quality but also in terms of the range of facilities offered, such as litter and recycling bins, disabled access, toilet facilities, dog control, car parking and educational projects.
