About Tortuga (Haiti)
The island was named "tortuga" (Spanish for turtle) by Christopher Columbus, who discovered it during one of his voyages. It soon after became a haven for pirates. It fell outside the jurisdiction of the East India Trade Company and Royal Navy, so anarchy and unruliness became the norm. It was featured in the modern-day film,Pirates of the Caribbean. You won't have problems finding English-speaking people here. Communication is very easy on the island compared to the rest of the country.
