• UK seaside town's popular beach compared to 'dreamy' Australian destination
• UK's 'most beautiful beach' is 'like Australian hotspot' with gold sand and clear water

This shoreline claimed the crown for most underwhelming when comparing critical feedback against search popularity, though the figure remained modest at just 2.7% of reviews describing it as "disappointing" or "overrated" alongside 447,000 TikTok searches, reports the Express.

Excessive crowds, heavy commercialisation, and visitor exhaustion feature prominently in complaints, securing its position at fifth place on the overhyped rankings.

Bondi Beach is famous for its waves, coastline and naturally, the countless holidaymakers who descend upon this golden stretch in Sydney annually.

The area boasts tidal pools, a thriving food and drink scene featuring numerous cafés and pubs, plus an array of boutique and chain retailers.

Yet despite its stunning appearance, this destination doesn't suit all tastes.

Tourists expressed frustration with the masses, with one individual posting on Tripadvisor: "I got the feeling that everyone who comes here comes for 'been there, done that' experience only. Crowded and overrated."

One disgruntled visitor remarked: "Probably the most over rated beach on the planet. Crowded full of arrogant people and feels like everyone is in a bad mood."

Another added: "I can't see anything attractive about Bondi, except possibly closeness to the city. The place is so heavily overpopulated, with apartments everywhere you look. Concrete is everywhere. Where is the nature?".

However, not everyone shared this sentiment, with some tourists being completely taken aback by the beach's beauty.

One such tourist enthused: "It's a vibrant, busy beach which is perfect for surfing and swimming. There are plenty of places to eat and drink along the beach and different walks that you can take along the coastline."

Another penned: "Bondi Beach is an absolute icon! The golden sand, rolling waves, and buzzing atmosphere make it a must-visit in Sydney.

"The surf is amazing, but it can be dangerous if you don't follow the flags and listen to the lifeguards-they're there for a reason!".
