Google revealed on Wednesday the top searched destinations in the world for 2017. Las Vegas took the top spot, Barcelona came in second, and South Carolina’s Myrtle Beach snagged third.
Of course, with any search data, it’s difficult to parse motivation. Las Vegas and Barcelona are already major tourist destinations, however recent news events in both — the terror attack in Las Vegas and both a terror attack and an attempt at secession in Barcelona — likely increased the number of searches.
Many of these destinations, however, are dreamy vacation spots, like Bali, Aspen, the Maldives, and Punta Cana. Warm-weather destinations dominated the top 10, with Bermuda, Turks and Caicos, and Cancun also making the list.
