The area has yet to be discovered on a mainstream tourist level. With proper management and investment, Port-Salut could become a major tourist destination in Haiti{{Or|date=December 2008}}, a country whose [[tourism industry]], full of potential{{Says who|date=July 2011}}, has been struggling for decades. From Les Cayes to Port-Salut, take a look at General Joseph Glemaud's locality Marcabee, a suburb of Port-Salut which has been taken care by its own citizens local or diaspora. An effort, an example of local area development by their own citizens. MPM is the organization in charge of this little locality. Auquini Vante, Denis Glemaud, and Paul Claudel Glemaud have initiated this movement with other local citizens, and now represented by other members living in New-York. HOHS is a medical group that also gets involved in humanitarian help... Port-Salut is a great area in Haiti with all suburbs that can easily, with more help, develop the tourism as known as beautiful beaches, people, and environment. |
