A Visit to Pirate Island

Last Saturday, we had the AMAZING opportunity to visit La Tortue. Its an island, that can be seen from Port-de-Paix...and its the famous pirate island! It had been rumored to have the most beautiful white beaches, so when Lenny and Allison asked us to go, of course we jumped at the chance!

We rode on a boat (about an hour and a half there...2 hours to get back) and had a fun time. On the way out I had to 'focus' on the land...I was definitely getting a little seasick. On the way back though, I was too busy laughing and trying to hold on as the boat would tip over to one side. We almost lost Allison at one point!

The beach was amazing. I can't even put into words the amazingness that was the beach. And the ocean was exquisite. It has been one of my favorite moments in Haiti.
