The blue flag awarded to Playa Las Cucharas in Costa Teguise was officially hoisted on Thursday 11th July 2013.
Mayor of Teguise, Oswaldo Betancort is pictured raising the flag, this is the first time in five years that the beach has met the strict quality, safety and environmental standards set to be awarded the blue flag. This distinction endorses the work that has been completed so far by the council, their aim is to have two more flags flying on the beaches of Playa del Jablillo and Playa Bastian in the near future.
Work has also commenced to replenish sand on the beaches of Jablillo, Los Charcos and El Ancla in the resort. Around 2,000 m3 / 1,800 tonnes of sand will be transported from Lanarote’s desert (El Jable) near Muñique to be distributed to these three beaches. The project is expected to be completed this month.
