- Sainmhíniú local administrative unit (LAUs) that borders a coastline or has at least 50 % of its surface area within a distance of 10 km from the coastline Tagairt "Eurostat. Statistics Explained. Glossary. 'Coastal area' (15.6.2021)"
- Nóta A coastline is defined as the line where land and water surfaces meet (border each other). Due to the existence of several measures (for example, the mean or median tides, high- or low-tides), the European Commission has adopted the harmonised use of the mean high tide (EC, 1999) in order to delineate EU coastlines. All other municipalities are non-coastal. Coastal areas are a classification based on the following two categories: coastal areas: LAUs that border the coastline or LAUs that have at least 50 % of their surface area within a distance of 10 km from the coastline; non-coastal areas: LAUs that are not ‘coastal areas’; in other words, LAUs that do not border the coastline and have less than 50 % of their surface area within a distance of 10 km from the coastline.
