Labadee is a cruise ship port in Northern Haiti. It is a private resort leased by Royal Caribbean International (RCI) for use by its Royal Caribbean Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruise line cruise ships. Royal Caribbean International has contributed the largest proportion of tourist revenue to Haiti since 1986. The resort is completely tourist-oriented and safe as there is a personal security force. A controlled group of Haitian merchants are given sole rights to sell their merchandise and establish their businesses in the resort. The site is fenced off from the surrounding area. The cruise ships anchor either at the pier or offshore and passengers walk from the pier to dry land or are ferried to the resort when ships have to anchor offshore.

As a virtually private resort for the cruiselines owned by RCI, the primary but not only entry for visitors is by cruise ship.
Read in the guideThe resort is on a peninsula about 300-400 m long, so it is small enough to reach all areas on foot from the landing dock. Open-air shuttles also run between all areas.
