The UK's worst seaside town named but tourists brand it a 'wonderful place' with 'good walks' - full list

However, not everyone agreed with which seaside town was voted as the worst.

Research previously released by Which? detailed the worst one in the UK, voted by readers.

Skegness and Clacton-on-Sea were joint last and both received a satisfaction rate of 48 per cent.

But what do tourists say?

Many appear to disagree as the area has a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars on Tripadvisor.

One reviewer wrote: "We were pleasantly surprised to find the beach to be clean and not overly crowded despite all the pleasant weather."

Another commented the location was "fantastic" and a "wonderful place" with "so much to do".

A third said it was "always clean" with "lots to do in the summer months".

One more review published this month said: "Skegness beach is not dirty, filthy, or covered in litter, it a long clean beach with very good walks."

Others agreed with the worst beach ranking as one Tripadvisor user called it "the most revolting beach we have ever been on" while another recent review called it a "horrible" place.

Clacton-on-Sea also has 4.5 out of 5 stars on Tripadvisor with nearly 1,000 reviews.

One reviewer called it a "beautiful and clean" beach that they absolutely loved. Another also praised it for having a clean beach.
