With the exception of the
Tortuga Island
and the coastal area near Port-de-Paix,
the NW is arid and barren. Port-de-Paix, which was once a
large exporter of coffee and bananas, is now importing contraband goods
from Miami. Once called Valparaiso by Columbus, there are still some
lovely beaches and scenery. Take the ferry to Tortuga island, once the
biggest pirate bases in the Caribbean. Named for the smooth, shape that
reminded travelers of a turtle's shell, Tortuga's best beach is Pointe
Saline at the western tip of the small island. Bring sunscreen! This area
is very dry and offers little shade. At Les
Palmiste on the eastern coast
visit a pre-Columbian rock carving of a goddess at La Grotte au Bassin and
two big caves at Trou d'Enfer and
La Grotte de la Galerie.
Basse-Terre, on
the southeastern coast is home to the remains of Fort de la
Roche, once
the island's biggest fortress. Along with a 15m high lime kiln, three
cannons and the foundations of a wall are all that is left of Fort
Ogeron,
built in the mid 1600's.
From Port-de-Paix, follow the RD 151 west, past the town
of Jean Rabel in order to reach
Môle Saint-Nicolas. Ever since Columbus
landed here in 1492 and named the island Hispaniola, Môle St-Nicolas has
been of interest to everyone, including the British, French and the
Americans due to its strategic location on the Windward
Passage, just
miles from Cuba. There are several ruined forts along the coast.
