9. The Blue Lagoon, Iceland
Iceland is no doubt one of the
hottest new travel destinations, with
interest increasing exponentially
over the past few years. The number
one destination in Iceland is The
Blue Lagoon. In 2017, it had a
record number of visitors totaling
1.2 million. The Blue Lagoon is a
natural, geothermal spa sunken into
a lava field and is known for its
mineral-rich healing waters.
Families book with care, as children
under 2 are not allowed in the pools — children between the ages of 2 and 8 are required to wear
arm floaties.
8. Machu Picchu, Peru
Tourists are quickly taking note
of South America as they look for
lesser-known, undiscovered places
in the world. Machu Picchu is one
of the most recognizable icons of
the continent and its tourism
numbers reflect it. After receiving
over 1 million visitors in 2016,
tourism officials decided to cut back
on the entrance allowance in efforts
to save the precious ruins from
crumbling.
