Earthquakes in Haiti — August 2025

1 earthquakes were recorded in Haiti during August 2025, an average of 0.0 per day.

0 reached magnitude 4 or above and 0 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 10 km.

The month's largest event in Haiti was a magnitude 3.9 earthquake near Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti on 05 August 2025 at 03:02 UTC. A magnitude 3.9 earthquake radiates roughly 11 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is close to the Haiti monthly average of 1 events over the period we cover.

100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.

By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 3 range.

That is close to the 1 events Haiti averages per month across the 2 months on record.
