British tourists planning to head for the Canary Islands have been issued a warning (Image: Getty) British tourists planning to head for the Canary Islands this summer have been issued a warning by a Spanish environmental group. Ecologistas en Acción (“Ecologists in Action”) released their annual ranking of Spanish beaches on Wednesday, which lists those they deem to have the most serious environmental issues , which they then label with “black flags”. After inspecting nearly 5,000 miles of Spanish coastline, 48 blag flag status beaches were listed in the 167-page 2024 Banderas Negras report , roughly equivalent to two flags per province or city.
