Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites awarded covered Blue Flag certification ​
 

The Blue Flag, internationally recognised as a symbol of excellence in sustainable tourism, is conferred upon beaches, marinas, and tourism boats that meet and uphold stringent environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility criteria.  

Central to the ethos of the Blue Flag programme is fostering a deeper connection between the public and their environment. To earn this coveted certification, Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites has not only met the rigorous environmental standards but has also committed to offering and promoting environmental education activities, along with providing information on biodiversity, ecosystems, and environmental phenomena. 

Administered by the Foundation for Environmental Education, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, the Blue Flag program signifies a dedication to maintaining unparalleled standards in environmental sustainability, education, and safety. Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites' commitment to meeting and exceeding these criteria underscores its pledge to environmental stewardship and sustainability.
