Grand'Anse, Administrative department in western Haiti

The department of Grand'Anse extends along the southwestern peninsula of Haiti, covering both mountainous terrain and coastal areas with numerous bays.

Grand'Anse became a separate administrative department in 1962 after being divided from the Sud department during Haiti's territorial reorganization.

The population of Grand'Anse maintains strong agricultural traditions, with local farmers specializing in coffee cultivation and fruit production throughout the region.

Travelers can reach Grand'Anse through the regional airport in Jérémie or via the national road network connecting to Port-au-Prince.

The Macaya mountain chain in Grand'Anse contains sections of protected forest areas that support local endemic plant and animal species.
