105. Tourism in Haiti is an industry that has generated just under a million arrivals in 2012,

and is one of the main sources of revenue for the island.

In 2012, the industry generated US$200 million (mostly from cruise ships).[1] In December 2012, the US State Department issued a travel warning about the country, noting that while thousands of American citizens safely visit Haiti each year, foreign tourists had been victims of violent crime, including murder and kidnapping, predominantly in the Port-au-Prince area.[7] Several hotels were opened in 2012, including a Best Western Premier,[8] a five-star Royal Oasis hotel by Occidental Hotel and Resorts in Pétionville,[9] a four-star Mariott hotel in the Turgeau area of Port-au-Prince[10] and other new hotel developments in Port-au-Prince, Les Cayes, Cap-Haïtien and Jacmel.[citation needed] Other tourist destinations include Camp-Perrin, Pic Macaya, and Île-à-Vache which includes Port Morgan and Abaka Bay resorts.[citation needed]

The Haitian Carnival has been one of the most popular carnivals in the Caribbean. In 2010, the government decided to stage the event in a different city outside of Port-au-Prince every year in an attempt to decentralize the country.[11][12] The National Carnival which is usually held in one of the country's largest cities (i.e., Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haïtien or Les Cayes), follows the also very popular Jacmel Carnival which takes place a week earlier in February or March.[11]

Population of Haiti is about 9-10 million. If about 1 million tourists are coming, still not too shabby.
