What was the worst beach on d-day?

Omaha Beach was the worst because of the terrain. Immediately back of the beach were high bluffs on which the defenders were situated in pillboxes and other fortifications, overlooking the beach. Assaulting troops had to make an amphibious landing, which is difficult even when the enemy is not present, and immediately attack high ground, which is also difficult. And the direction of their attack was completely predictable - they would be coming from the direction of the sea. The other beaches had more typical coastal terrain, with low land being immediately behind the beaches. The terrain at Omaha was the worst from the attackers point of view along the entire fifty miles of the assault area, and this was recognized before hand, but the planners could find no alternative.
