Not in 30 yrs (more like 60), but India. J. Nehru, followed by his daughter Indira Gandhi, followed by her son, Rajiv Gandhi.
There's even a reasonably good chance that his son, Rahul Gandhi might become a PM in the future, maybe the next one. Ironically, in his case, given the alternatives, many people actually consider this a good thing.
But overall, I agree, such PM dynasties aren't a good thing.
