Off the north coast of Haiti. More ways for the cruise lines to get your money and pay the locals a pittance wage. I've never been, usually because they don't have the charter cruises stop there.

If we ever do go on a cruise that stops there, I'm going to wear my necklaces for Papa Legba and Oshun and see if any of the workers get it.
