Updated : 24/03/2020

having regard to the current public health situation in Portugal due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the consequent declaration of a state of emergency made by the Decree of the President of the Republic No 14-A/2020, of 18 March, regulated by the Decree No 2-A/2020, on 20 March, the bodies promoting the Programme – this Institute, the Portuguese Environment Agency and Turismo de Portugal – decided to extend the deadline for submitting applications, initially set for 31 March, until 30 April.

Thus, municipalities that wish to apply for bathing areas in their municipalities for this award may do so until that date, with the regional entities that accompany the application processes.

Given the unpredictability of the evolution of the situation, we inform you that any change related to this matter will be timely communicated through this channel.
