Copacabana - Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

As one of the most iconic beaches in the world, Copacabana has solidified its place in history thanks to the song of the same name. And while many people plan to visit this place and tick it off their bucket list, they're sorely disappointed when they get there. And they probably won't stay there long, considering it's one of the most dangerous beaches in the world! In fact, the crime rate is extremely high.

As tourists flock to the beach, so do the thieves. Not only that, but it's also becoming increasingly dirty, with garbage and drinks bottles everywhere. It's just not what it once was.
