Let's discover the flag of Reunion island, one of the 101 French departments in the French overseas region. Reunion is an island in the Indian Ocean close to the African continent. It is a wonderful island with stunning mountains and beautiful beaches that make holidaymakers fall in love with this dream destination!

Reunion Island has several flags: the APDR flag, the cultural flag and the libertarian flag. The official flag of Reunion island is the blue white and red flag; the flag of France. The flag of the European Union is also officially used with the French flag as Reunion is an outermost region of the European Union.

Let's talk about the official flags of the Reunion island department commonly used on the island

AZ Flag proposes you the different flags of Reunion Island like the rectangular regional flag of the island named the flag of the Radiant Volcano or "Lo Maveli". The creator of this beautiful flag is called Guy Pignolet. It is a flag with a blue background representing the blue sky with a red triangle at the base of the flag representing the volcano called La Fournaise on the island. Five rays of sunlight diverge from the "mount" at the top symbolising the arrival of the population. This flag was adopted in 2003 and some towns such as Saint Denis or Saint-Joseph display the flag on public buildings or during a rallying parade.

Then there are other less popular flags that have been created by various associations. The flag of the APDR (Association Pour le Drapeau de La Réunion) for example was proposed in 1996. It is composed of the French tricolour flag on the flagpole and in the centre, a white circle surrounded by four colours symbolising the different ethnic groups on the island: red, blue, yellow and green.

The cultural flag, created in 1984 by MLK, symbolises the strength of the island's identity. The red triangle for the volcano, the yellow circle for the sun, the black for the ancestors and slaves, the green for the earth and the blue for the blue sky. Finally, there is the libertarian banner, created by an independent movement, which symbolises the suffering of the slaves and serves as a symbol of the nationalist revolution.
