BEACHES

SOME OF MY FAVORITE BEACHES

Canaan is located on a hill just three quarters of a mile off the Caribbean Ocean. Just about anywhere your at on the property you can see the beautiful blue waters off shore. Some of the most beautiful beaches in Haiti are up and down the coast from where we live.
Beach resorts with names like Wahoo Bay, Kaliko, Moulin Ser Mer and Club Indigo once lured travelers from the U.S. and Europe to their fine beaches, restaurants and hotels. The only foreigners that come now are U.N. personnel, wealthy Haitians and missionaries. There is hope that when the new improved roadway is completed and if the country continues to stay calm that the tourist once again will find Haiti's beaches a vacation destination.
Those who come to work with us at Canaan almost always get an opportunity to visit at least one of the three beaches that I take teams to. These beaches aren't resorts so we don't have to pay to get in, they are private so we usually have them all to ourselves. We usually take along some of the kids from Canaan when we go. Almost always we play games like keep away or volleyball, occasionally we have a cookout, sometimes an evening beach fire and sing along but for sure we have a good time every time.
