Haiti is the paradise on earth it's the place to be.



Citadelle Laferrière
The Citadelle Laferriere is a magnificent mountaintop fortress originally built after Haiti gained independence, in order to provide protection against French invasion. It remains more or less in the same beautiful condition now as it did back then, and is, for Haitians, a revered symbol of their strength when faced with threat. Located on the northern coast of Haiti, on the top of mountain Bonnet a L’Eveque, the Citadelle provides beautiful views of the surrounding green fields.
Address: Citadelle Laferrière, Nord, Haiti

Bassin Bleu

Bassin Bleu is a blissfully secluded waterfall on the hills of Jacmel, Haiti. Travelers can follow a trail to the basin and spend a day jumping from the waterfalls, swimming in the turqoise water and enjoying the cool cover of the lush vegetation. The privacy of the spot makes it feel like paradise.
Address: Bassin-Bleu, Sud-Est, Haiti

Labadee

Labadee is a private port, and a secluded piece of paradise. Owned by the Royal Caribbean International cruise company, the white sandy beaches and crystal water here make it one of the most enchanting destinations on the island. Besides relaxing on the beach by the blue sea, visitors can shop from a selection of Haitian vendors, participate in watersports or try their hand at a zipline.
Address: Labadee, Nord, Haiti

Gelee Beach

Gelee Beach is the longest and most romantic stretch of sand in Haiti, with fishing boats bobbing on the horizon and the sweet smell of coconuts in the air. A number of excellent seafood restaurants offer daily deals nearby, and during August the place is packed with enthusiastic dancers and musicians for the Fete Notre Dame festival. A few meters beyond Gelee lie open pasturelands, so don’t be surprised to see a roaming cow or two.
Address: Les Cayes, Haiti

Saut-Mathurine

The largest waterfall in the area, Saut-Mathurine is an alluring cascade in the southwest region of Haiti. The Rivière de Cavaillon provides the source for the waterfall’s stream, and its aqua waters are easily accessible for paddling and swimming. The drive to Saut-Mathurine offers beautiful views of the country and the lush greenery on all sides.
Address: Camp Perrin, Sud, Haiti

Remy Ma Wins 'Woman Of The Year' Award

Remy Ma is having a good year. Her diss tracks targeting  Nicki Minaj have been well-received (for the most part, anyway), and she's getting a lot more recognition for her rap skills than she was prior to her stint in jail. To add another good thing to a list of good things, the experienced battle rapper was recently named Woman of the Year at the 2nd Annual Glitz and Girl Power Awards, Hip Hop Wired reports. Remy accepted her award in person at a ceremony in Miami, Florida on Sunday, and delivered an empowering speech during her time on stage. (She looked absolutely stunning too. That dress!) "Every possible thing that you think can go wrong in your life, it happened to me, and I'm still here," Remy said. "All of you have that same opportunity." Congrats, Remy! Way to keep it positive.
