Blue Flag International, a worldwide organisation setting stringent environmental and quality standards, has awarded Ħondoq in Gozo with ‘Beach of Quality’ status.

“This is great news for all those who have worked hard in their continued fight to protect the area from developers, and those involved in the continued upgrading of the facilities available,” Moviment Ħarsien Ħondoq said.

It hoped a long awaited Mepa report will be released shortly in favour of saving Ħondoq from development – “and then it will be possible to move forward and push for the area to be become a National Park”.
