Haiti to develop Caribbean’s last ‘true treasure island’
Mar 19, 2013
The island Haiti’s tourism leaders describe as the Caribbean’s ‘last true treasure island’ will be put under the development knife, as it undergoes an eco-makeover to become the region’s next biggest tourism hot spot. The region’s Ministry of Tourism has proposed a laid back development for the 52-square-kilometre island, Ile a Vache, that will highlight its cultural heritage areas, agro-tourism and history as well as 20 deserted beaches, Caribbean Journal reported. “Ile a Vache is one of the last true treasure islands of the Caribbean,” the Ministry of Tourism said in its proposal.
