== [[Film]] ==
* Sweethaven in the 1980 ''[[Popeye (film)|Popeye]]''
* Tortuga, Singapore and Shipwreck Cove from ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]''. Jack tells his crew to be careful about the latter as it's apparently a [[Meaningful Name]].
** In reality, the actual wretched hive of the Caribbean during that time period was Port Royal. It shows up as the city Governor Swann runs, and is portrayed as being orderly and clean. Tortuga had been a notorious [[Wretched Hive]] in the late 17th century, but had cleaned up its act and lost that reputation by the time ''Pirates'' is apparently set.
*** The Tortuga of the film is still somewhat cleaned up and [[Disneyfication|Disney-fied]], compared to how you'd expect it to be in real life; women can walk safely around without any fears of being raped, for example. Considering that a lot of the pirates have no qualms about murder ( [[Pirates Who Don't Do Anything|at least in theory]]), that there are much more men than women everywhere in the film, and how most pirates spend a long time in boats without women, you'd expect that even pretty young men wouldn't be safe, let alone Elizabeth Swann.
* Samoa in ''[[Nate and Hayes]]''.
* ''[[Star Wars]]'': Mos Eisley -- and indeed, most of the rest of Tattooine -- is this trope [[Recycled in Space|IN SPACE]]!
