Haiti Travel Insurance

Once a French colony, Haiti is a Caribbean nation with the Dominican Republic as its eastern neighbor. The influence of colonial rule and slavery is visible in every sphere of life here. While an earthquake in 2010 severely affected this region, most of Haiti’s old landmarks are still remarkably intact. The nation’s tourism is gradually claiming back its lost sheen. Those looking for some sunshine and relaxing time can head to Haiti’s coastal areas where beautiful palm-lined stretches of sand await. Nature lovers can take a hike across La Visite National Park. You will come across locals carrying batches of fresh produce to the markets. On a clear day, this park offers wonderful views.

Bassins Bleu is another scenic destination. These are cobalt-blue water pools with striking cascades. The history buffs will relish their time at La Citadelle la Ferrière, an early 19th-century fortress, and for Haitians it is no less than the eighth wonder of the world. Built on top of a 900-meter summit, this Citadelle offers a brilliant view from every direction.

The imposing fortress still seems impenetrable with thick and high walls, drawbridges, and blind corners. You can spend hours roaming its gallery of cannons, the central courtyard, and secret passageways. Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, remains a bustling hub for most tourists with its many exquisite cafes, restaurants, and places of art. On the south of this capital city is Kenscoff, a major market town in the mountains.
