Labadee sits on a secluded stretch of Haiti’s northern coast, set up as a private cruise-line escape with something for every energy level. The port drops you right onto the peninsula, so there’s no tender and no delay in starting your day.

You can ride the Dragon’s Breath zipline across the bay or switch to the Dragon’s Tail Coaster, a self-controlled alpine ride with ocean views and hairpin turns. For splashier fun, Arawak Aqua Park features floating obstacle courses, trampolines, and giant inflatables anchored just offshore.

If your speed leans more hammock than high-flying, head to Columbus Cove for quiet beach time or book a floating mat and drift in the shallows. Kayaks and paddleboards are available for self-guided exploring, and fishing charters can take you deeper for tuna, mahi mahi, or marlin.

Vendors at the Artisan Market sell hand-carved woodwork, island spices, and colorful paintings, offering a window into local culture. For something more scenic, take a boat tour along the coastline to visit small fishing villages tucked between cliffs and jungle.

Lunch is easy with beach grills and snack shacks serving jerk chicken, grilled seafood, fresh fruit, and cold drinks. A complimentary tram runs throughout the area, or you can walk the shaded paths between beaches, markets, and water attractions.

Labadee offers a choose-your-own-adventure kind of day. Whether you’re ziplining, souvenir hunting, or floating in the bay, it’s a no-passport-needed taste of Haiti with views you’ll want to remember before heading back to your Escape with EFFY Caribbean charter cruise.
