View submission: What is the most overrated vacation destination?

Went to Atlantic City for the first time last year for a work conference and was absolutely gobsmacked. Would never recommend. We were on the beach at one point and some locals told us to get off because there were needles all over the sand. It was really a pretty depressing place.

It really was. The interiors of the casinos were nice, but I'm not a gambler so I didn't feel like taking advantage. Wildwood is a much, much nicer place.

I was there just after the last revitalization attempt (Late 80s ?) and it was horrible.. I drove through last year and it was a million times worse.. It looked like an old west ghost town..
