Environment Department member Chris Brock said the island could be proud nine beaches met strict standards. The natural beauty of the island is one of the main ingredients of the States' new tourism marketing campaign.
Meanwhile, St Martin Douzanier Patrick Symons is calling for an end to the continued closure of Petit Port beach. Petit Port has been closed since 2001 after a rock fall damaged the access steps.
Douzanier Symons said the former Board of Administration agreed to carry the repairs after much lobbying was carried out.
But since the change of government the promise has been "put on the back burner", he said. He is calling for action to reopen the beach to be taken.
