Haiti - Haiti’s tourist potential is made up of more than tropical beaches and lush vegetation. Historic sites, colorful architecture, art exhibitions and an array of handicrafts represent a natural attraction for any tourist who desires to explore the historical heritage and culture of this unique island country, so close and so distant, due to its specific historic development, to its Caribbean neighbors. However, Haiti is not yet included on Caribbean cruise tours. The international embargo imposed on the military regime of Raoul Cedras and the political turmoil, scared tourists away and excluded the country from tour operators lists.
