Northwest Florida residents who want to visit one of the top tourist destinations in the world for 2010 need only to step outside.

Frommer’s Travel Guide, one of the best-selling travel guides in the world with more than 75 million books sold, recently named the Florida panhandle beaches as one of its top 12 travel destinations for next year.

Other areas that made Frommer’s list are Tunisia in North Africa; Hanoi, Vietnam; and Melbourne, Australia. The only other American locale that made the list was Hawaii’s Big Island.
