00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World. My name's Theo Houston-Betts and today I'm out

00:03on the streets of Manchester talking to people about beaches. And that's because the results

00:06of a witch survey have come out recently to reveal the three worst beaches in the UK.

00:10And we want to know if people would still plan a beach holiday in 2025 or whether the

00:14draw of going abroad would be too much for them.

00:17I don't think they've progressed. They're still stuck in time. You go to places like

00:23Scarborough and Blackpool and they're not moving forward.

00:29Well, I'm from North Wales. So home is North Wales. I literally live on the coast and I

00:34wouldn't say that they're struggling. I feel like if anything, it's like the place to get away.

00:38I sense there seems to be a big commercial issue there as well. It's all about making money

00:45I think out of the business of tourism there.

00:48In Covid as well, all the seas went a nice colour so everyone was on it. But now Covid's

00:53gone and the sea's basically black. Maybe I wouldn't go.

00:59I'm sorry.

01:00Wourj.

01:01I'm sorry!

01:02I wasn't sure.

01:03I may have to go.

01:04Look, look!

01:06Look at the water.

01:06I was showing up here.

01:08If you see it, I can go.

01:10Just the water.

01:12I'm sorry.
