Jacmel, Haiti: Queen of the Caribbean

[Sydney Noel]

 

Founded in 1698, Jacmel is a beautiful, picturesque town in Haiti, located in the southeast part of the country only two hours driving and 15 minutes by plane from the capital, Port-au-Prince. The road to Jacmel are among the best in the country, and driving there can be an experience on its own, as you get the chance to truly enjoy the breathtaking views of the many lush, majestic mountains, up and down valleys, as far as the eyes can see. Jacmel is also world famous for its art, its annual carnival its colonial architecture and its endless incredible coasts. When you visit a beach there, the view that surround you is something that you'd expect to see in a postcard. But no, this is Jacmel, Haiti.
