Port-au-Prince sits inside Ouest, Haiti and ranks #1 of 17 cities in Ouest by population. Every distance on this page is a straight-line Great Circle (haversine) measurement — the shortest path a plane or signal would take between two GPS points, not the longer road-and-turns route a driver would actually cover. View the nearby cities, nearby states or nearby countries tables above.
Scroll down and this page also ranks the states closest to Port-au-Prince and the countries closest to Port-au-Prince by the same straight-line measurement. For the complete national picture, see every country bordering or near Haiti. Handy for cross-border import/export planning, scouting a new travel corridor or lining up emergency logistics across North America.
Next to every distance sits a compass heading from Port-au-Prince, plotted on the 16-point rose (N, NNE, NE, ENE, E, ESE, SE, SSE, S, SSW, SW, WSW, W, WNW, NW, NNW). The rotating arrow marks the bearing angle (0°–360°, where 0°/360° is due north) — see it in action in the cities, states and countries tables above. It's the same reference pilots, sailors and long-haul truckers use to picture the layout around Port-au-Prince at a glance.

It's the same math airlines use to estimate flight paths. View the Port-au-Prince map for the exact coordinates behind these numbers.
It's a straight line — the shortest possible path between two points on Earth's surface, ignoring roads, terrain and detours. Actual driving distance from Port-au-Prince will almost always run longer, sometimes significantly, depending on the road network. Treat the figures here as a quick planning benchmark, not a substitute for a live route from a mapping or navigation app.
