Saut-Mathurine, Natural waterfall in Camp-Perrin, Haiti.

Saut-Mathurine is a waterfall near Camp-Perrin that plunges down a steep drop and flows into a turquoise pool along the Cavaillon River. The water spreads across a wide rocky base before continuing downstream through southwestern Haiti.

The waterfall has long supplied water to the communities living nearby and served as a vital resource for daily life. Later, the power of the water led people to build facilities for generating electricity for the region.

Saut-Mathurine is the emblem of Camp-Perrin: many Haitian singers mention the falls in songs as an image of local pride, and several major Haitian painters have depicted it. The name is pronounced "So Matɛin" in Haitian Creole. Visitors arrive throughout the year.

Saut-Mathurine lies about 7 km northeast of Camp-Perrin's town centre, reached by Route nationale 7 as far as Marceline. A kiosk of roughly 18 square metres, built by the tourism ministry, shelters visitors from the spray and serves for photos or a meal. Rain is frequent, so bring protection.

Water is diverted at the Mahot basin to feed three hydroelectric turbines of 800 kW each, supplying Camp-Perrin and Maniche with up to 2.4 MW in the rainy season and 1.2 MW in the dry season. In dry periods only one unit runs, producing 600 kW, synchronized with the Boudette thermal plant in Les Cayes.
