Haiti
Responsible Tourism
- The nation of Haiti had a vibrant tourism scene during the 70s and 80s; however, natural disasters and a fragile political climate led to the tourism numbers dwindling in the area. First, take it in and observe the world that you’ve entered into. Haitians are proud people, and sensitive to how their image is conveyed to the world. When touring a country, always contact local guides and people from the area to learn best practices when it comes engaging in community and culture.
Be Friendly
-Learn a few greetings in the local language of Creole and respectfully greet people you meet. Haitians are social and quick to share: offer information about yourself and demonstrate a genuine sense that you want to know the people who you are talking with.
Beautiful Beaches
-Once the most popular tourist spot in the Caribbean, Haiti is home to miles of breathtaking beaches and crystal blue waters.
Gorgeous Mountains
-Haiti is home to more mountains than any other spot on the Caribbean, some of which are surrounded by water. This provides tourists a view of the mountains while they lounge beside the ocean, the best of both geographical vistas.
