The National Healthy Beaches Campaign is the first scientifically based beach certification program administered by a professional group of coastal experts focused on U.S. beaches.
Understanding the true nature of the human, social,
and socio-economic relationships with beach environments, the NHBC
is dedicated to creating a balance between the recreational use of
America’s beaches and maintaining the environmental quality
and safety of this prized resource. With this mandate we approach
the task of beach ratings against 60 stringent environmental and service-based
criteria. This Rating Criteria includes EPA water quality
standards, beach cleanliness, safety, environmental quality and management
and auxiliary services.
