The Pearl of the Antilles

Armed with a sunny resilience in the wake of a devastating 2010 earthquake, floods, and civil unrest, Haiti is slowly coming back. While its hard-hit capital, Port-au-Prince, digs out of the rubble, the world’s first black republic remains a quixotic and deeply compelling destination, with fanciful gingerbread architecture and Creole flair. In spite of ongoing hardship, the island’s sparkling beauty shines through, with creamy white beaches framed in languid palms and soaring green hills wrapped in blue mist.11
