There are many places to in Haiti which are worth a visit, and many provinces have activities during the summer season. The three that stand out are Fete Gele, Fete Saut D’eau, and Fete Plaine du Nord.

People flock to Haiti every year for its sunny climate, perfect waters, and excellent beaches. Along the beaches there is an unbroken line of attractions, hotels, and bars available for any number of visitors. The south coast is known for nonstop action all day and night, while the north coast with it rugged, desolate, and rocky landscape has resisted development.

Although the political climate is a bit uncertain, Haiti sees more the half a million visitors a year and is the perfect place for those seeking a nice climate, lots of culture, and great food. The U.S. dollar is accepted everywhere and Creole and French are spoken nationally, which makes Haiti a hot spot for Haitian/Americans who want a trip out of the country that provides a change of culture.

Just where should you go in Haiti? Although there are a number of good places to visit, here is a list of all the province celebrations that should be at the top of your list of when you take your trip.
