Canet den Berenguer adds the Q for Quality to its beach distinctions

Published on June 14, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Canet d'en Berenguer beach has received the Q for Tourist Quality, a recognition that adds to the Blue Flag and Qualitur. This distinction guarantees quality services, sustainability, and accessibility. For residents and visitors, it means a safe, clean, and adapted environment for everyone, including a specific point for people with reduced mobility. Canet is consolidating itself as a first-class tourist destination for families.

Sustainability and accessibility as the foundation of tourism development 🏖️

Obtaining the Q for Tourist Quality involves an audit process and compliance with technical standards in service management, cleanliness, safety, and accessibility. Canet has implemented an accessibility point for people with reduced mobility, with walkways, adapted restrooms, and amphibious chairs. Additionally, sustainable waste management and water quality are periodically evaluated. These technical elements ensure that the beach maintains a balance between tourist use and conservation of the natural environment, following international criteria.

Now we just need the Q to also work for parking on the front line 🚗

With three distinctions in its pocket, Canet beach looks like a medal collector. But let's not kid ourselves: no matter how much Q for Quality it has, the struggle to find a free umbrella in August will still be as epic as a Champions League final. Sure, at least we'll know that while we argue over the spot, the water is clean and the sand is pristine. A small consolation, but a consolation nonetheless.
