Puerto Vallarta, Jal.- Upon obtaining a few weeks ago the certification for the Holi Beach, located in the North Hotel zone of Puerto Vallarta, the municipality became the nationwide destination with the largest number of certified beaches.

At the moment there are five beaches that have been certified by organizations that evaluate and dictate aspects such as: quality of water, services, cleaning, security, presence of lifeguards, blogs of control, management plans, environmental and educational programs and infrastructure; among other criteria that are fundamental for the safety and enjoyment of visitors and bathers.

The beaches of Puerto Vallarta that have been certified are: Garza Blanca, Amapas - Conchas Chinas, Camarones, the Holi and Playas Palmares, being this last one which, in addition to national certification, it also obtained an internationally recognized award Blue Flag, which places Playas Palmares at the level of any European beach.

The director of Puerto Vallarta’s Environment and Ecology Office, Juan José Navarro Amaral, said that one of the central themes of environmental policies that the municipality of Puerto Vallarta implements, is the conservation and enhancement of coastal ecosystems. He also explained that "the certification of quality in beaches started with the intentions of helping the coastal ecosystems to retain their great range of habitat, their great variety of species and nutrients and to protect the coastline against erosion, as well as other health and safety aspects”.

Another distinction the destination has gotten, is that, unlike other beaches with certification that are protected, are difficult to access or they are part of natural reserves, Puerto Vallarta is at all times, visited by tourists and locals; in other words, open to and for everyone.

Navarro Amaral reminded everyone that they are working so that, in the near future, the Mismaloya Beach will also certified, which will make it the sixth certification by the Mexican Institute of Standardization and Certification; an independent highly recognized and prestigious Institute.

Los Muertos y Olas Altas, are two beaches that are currently being evaluated and there is already a plan so that, in conjunction with the residents and entrepreneurs of these areas, they can be part of a review process to obtain their certification.
