Health benefits of beaches: Testing of the BlueHealth Environmental Assessment Tool for the Australian context

Research output: Working paper

Abstract

Beaches can be important health promoting settings. However, the quality of beaches may differ across neighbourhoods. More robust measurement of beach quality and the relationship with physical activity could provide information around what features are health and wellbeing promoting. This study modified and evaluated the reliability of the UK Blue Health Environmental Assessment Tool
