Map of Central Haiti

• 18.533333-72.3333331 Port-au-Prince (Pòtoprens) — the big chaotic capital that needs no introduction.
• 19.15-72.0166672 Hinche (Ench)
• 18.45-72.2833333 Kenscoff — a cool mountain retreat from the hectic life of Port-au-Prince.
• 18.833333-72.1052784 Mirebalais
• 18.516667-72.2833335 Pétion-Ville — the wealthy side of Port-au-Prince, just to its south.
• 19.116667-72.76 Saint-Marc (Sen Mak) — a busy port serving the populous north central section of the country.
• 19.05-72.4666677 Verrettes (Vèrèt) — a small city with low crime and a busy live music/nightlife scene.

• 18.833333-73.0833331 Gonâve Island — Haiti's largest island is a nightmarish vision—the island is ecologically devastated and overpopulated with, essentially, the poorest of the poor who were forcefully relocated by the government to here from Port-au-Prince. Less than a third of the island's population has access to potable drinking water. There are no tourist attractions on this one-time tropical island paradise; no hotels.
