I noticed an article the other day that said that Blackpool had finally got a 'Blue Flag' for its south beach. Meaning that the water was finally clean enough to bathe in after a couple of decades of clean up actions.

| Blackpool - Blue Flag Beach |
Principally that involved expanding the sewer spillage outlets further into the Irish Sea, from their previous end points within the Morecambe bay area, so its now among 68 beaches in England to have secured the Blue Flag status this year. This brings the total achieving the award in Britain to 169.
