Up on the north side of the country in Cap Haitien lies the greatest architecture feat in the country- the immense Citadelle fortress built by the French to protect the area.. with no guard rails or fences, you can easily fall 2000 feet to your death if you lean too far over the edge so be careful! It takes a good healthy walk up the switchback path, and the locals have a way of cutting straight up to set up vendor tables when they hear people are coming and see vehicles approaching. Amazing! A couple thousand men lost their lives erecting the unfinished structure up on top of the highest peak, and you can see for miles! Afterwards head to Cormier Plage beach or Labadie resort up in the coast!

We signed up for the Amiga Island excursion during our port visit to Labadee, and it was a great choice. We never saw the beaches at Labadee but I'm guessing they were pretty crowded with 4,000 passengers getting off the ship. There were about 25 folks on our boat. It took about 25 minutes to get to the island, and we had to wade a bit to get onto the beach. There were chairs and a small bar and a couple hammocks, but most people spent time in the water, which was perfect temperature. We also walked around the island, which took about ten minutes. Overall it was a nice getaway from the cruise crowds, and worth the cost.

The Heros de Vertieres is a phenomenal monument that must be seen by all visitors and tourists wishing to view Haitian historical legacy at its Best. Most importantly, it is a symbol of Freedom to remind the world of the danger of slavery and its aftermath.
