The head of Mexico's Environmental Protection Agency (Profepa), Guillermo Haro Belchez says Mexico will seek to triple its "Blue Flag" beach certifications in 2015.
Belchez says it's important to show that the beaches of Mexico are environmentally clean and safe to grow tourism in the future.
The statements were made during a "Beach Rule" Winter 2014 event which is a national event in Mexico. Areas included are Puerto Vallarta, Cabo, Mazatlan, and other coastal areas along the 17 Mexican coastal states. "Beach Rule" is an awareness program to keep Mexico's beaches clean.
Mexico currently has 11 certified . . .
