According to a photo and article found by "Indy" and posted to the FOTW Discord server, a flag for Flagler Beach was taken to space aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavor by astronaut and US Senator Mark Kelly in December 2001 (STS-108). According to a display in the Flagler Beach Historical Museum, the flag was designed by Rosemarie Price, Colleen Lee, Alice Baker, and Sandra Bolser.

However, City Clerk Penny Overstreet has told me that Flagler Beach does not have an official flag. The flag in the Flagler Beach Historical Museum was produced only to be taken to space.
