Port-au-Prince Bay is a bay located in the Gulf of Gonâve in Haiti, at the bottom of which lies the vast plain of the Cul-de-Sac and the country's capital, Port-au-Prince, alongside its metropolitan area. It is connected to the gulf via two inlets located on either side of the island of Gonâve: the Canal de Saint-Marc to the north of it and the Canal de la Gonâve to the south.
