Places in Haiti

  • Cap-Haïtien

    Cap-Haïtien is Haiti's second largest city with 275,000 residents, lying along a bay on the northern coast. During French colonial rule as Saint Domingue, it was the colony's capital called Cap Parisien or Cap Francais.

  • Jacmel

    Jacmel is a beautiful Caribbean port city in Southern Haiti, distinguished by its well-preserved 19th-century colonial architecture and a relaxed pace that contrasts sharply with the capital. The city faces the Caribbean Sea, benefiting from cooling ocean breezes that make it more pleasant than inland Haitian destinations.

  • Port-au-Prince

    Port-au-Prince offers a raw, unfiltered encounter with post-earthquake Haiti—the National Palace's skeletal ruins, tent cities occupying former parks, and street markets selling voodoo paraphernalia alongside fresh turtles. The city serves as a transit hub for exploring Haiti's limited tourism infrastructure, with nearby Pétion-Ville offering relative safety and nightlife.

  • Saint-Marc

    Saint-Marc offers authentic Haitian community life away from the tourist trail. The city has Caribbean-style buildings with ornamental balconies and a central park with mature trees.
