Default Melbourne seems a bit different

Most beaches are now 90% gay or single male, when it used to be about 60%.

The Sydney Harbour beaches of Cobblers, Obelisk (99% gay anyway) and Lady Jane have all lost most of their sand, so they almost disappear at high tide.

Most ocean beaches are so big that nude people are spaced quite thinly. It would be impossible to get close enough to get good photos in these circumstances.

Alexandra Bay in Noosa (Qld) and Maslins in SA are good beaches, but taking good photos would be very hard.

Thankfully, topless appears to still be quite common on our 'regular' beaches.

Our other problem in Sydney is that we've had two rainy summers in a row.
Fortunately for Melburnians Sunnyside seems to be different and there are a number of good looking women there on a hot day though they are nearly always with a male or part of a group whereas a few years ago there weren't so many. Interestingly topless doesn't appear to be as common on regular beaches as it was and unfortunately like Sydney we have had very few hot weekends in the last 2 years.
