Does Santa Catalina have a Blue Flag?

No. Santa Catalina is not listed with a Blue Flag in the MITECO data. The nearest Blue Flag beach is San Sebastián (San Sebastián de la Gomera), 12 km away in a straight line. Without a flag, Santa Catalina can be just as good: the label measures services and water quality, not looks.
