Even though the country has suffered through poverty, natural disasters, and environmental degradation, Haiti remains proud and carries on. Since the Port au Prince earthquake in 2010 devastated the country, an effort has taken place to not only rebuild the infrastructure for international tourists but reintroduce them to this once-popular Caribbean travel destination. There are still landmarks from the early 19th century—including UNESCO World Heritage Sites—along with many culturally and historically interesting things to see in this country, which takes up almost half of the island of Hispaniola shared with the Dominican Republic.
Covering an area of 27,750 sq. km (10,710 sq mi), Haiti is the 3rd largest country in the Caribbean, behind Cuba and the Dominican Republic. It occupies the western third of the island of Hispaniola and consists of two peninsulas, separated by the Gonave Gulf.

The highest point is Pic La Stelle in the Massif De La Selle. It stands at 8,793ft (2,680m). Its position has been marked on the map by a yellow triangle.
Haiti has the 2nd longest coastline (1,771km/1,100mi) in the Caribbean, with Cuba having the longest La Gonave and La Tortue are it’s most significant islands.
