Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Paradise Beach

The reef off Paradise Beach is mostly soft corals with some hard brain corals interspersed among them. There is a high concentration of fire coral, so be careful to stay well above the coral to avoid getting stung. There are patches of staghorn coral with fish hiding in the. The fish life is rather sparse as is the case with much of coastal Haiti but there are still some wrasses, parrotfish, tangs and surgeonfish to study as you swim by. This site has a good number of purple gorgonian fans as well. Always fun to inspect for a flamingo tongue snail. To get to Paradise you need to take a Boat Taxi from Labadie village taxi port. The 20 minute ride costs 1,000 Gourdes (Aug 09) or approximately 25 USD for the round trip. Once on the beach the entry is a gradual sandy slope dropping down quickly to 13 meters over a short distance where it levels off again at about 18meters to a sandy bottom. Paradise Beach is also known as Malfini.
