Getting to know the north coast of Haiti


We have not posted for a while due to busy construction project with Kalite farm.  
We wanted to share with you the site that surrounded our hilltop B&B and farm
if you're interested in how Haiti came to be as it is today, head for the north coast. It all happened here,
from Columbus' first landfall on Hispaniola to the key events of the Haitian slave revolution, and there
are still many monuments to mark out this path of History.
The magnificent Citadelle la ferriere is the mother of all caribbean forts.  Built in the early year of independence. There are more forts further to the east.
Comier plage and plage Labadie are a stone's throw from Cap-Haitien.
