This variant of the Ecological Blue Flag of Costa Rica lacks stars or year,
likely a general purpose-use flag (image obtained from

Judging from additional information found at
https://www.aratours.com/es/costa-rica?view=article&id=661&catid=23, it
looks like there are at least 14 different "general purpose/use" flags under the
Ecological Blue Flag program in Costa Rica, with the background color of the
logo varying among the 14 categories. The one that Paul highlighted in the
linked Facebook photo appears to have a red background in the logo, as well as
the words "COSTA RICA/SALUD COMUNITARIA" (Costa Rica/Community Health).
Additional categories include Beaches, Natural Protected Areas, and Climate
Neutral, among others. Based on the various categories of Blue Flag in Costa
Rica, as well as the criteria listed on the same page for 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and
5-star designations, I think it's likely that there are any number of variations
of the Ecological Blue Flag. Well, doing the math, I suppose there would be
about 70 possible variants each year (1-to-5 stars in each of 14 categories).
Just a guess on my part, though, as Spanish is not my first language, and I
couldn't find any documentation immediately available to me in English that
fully described the flag program.
