All 13 beaches in Tel Aviv have been given the Blue Flag sustainability award for 2025.

The internationally recognized label awarded by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) to beaches and marinas is conditioned on meeting strict environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility conditions and is reassessed annually.

The city says renewal of the status reflects its continuing commitment to sustainable coastal practices, which include reducing the use of disposable plastic goods on beaches.
