The provided maps illustrate the transformation of Paradise Island from its past state to its present configuration.
Overall, the island has undergone significant development, with numerous new facilities introduced and some of the natural landscape altered to accommodate these changes.
In the past, Paradise Island featured several notable characteristics, including a beach, a boat pier, and a seafood restaurant located to the northwest. The central part of the island was dominated by a forest, which provided a natural habitat for local flora and fauna. The southeast portion was designated as a swim area, while the northeast section contained a natural spring surrounded by rocky formations. Throughout the island, palm trees were interspersed, contributing to the tropical ambiance of the locale.
In contrast, the present-day layout of Paradise Island reflects substantial alterations and enhancements. The beach and some rocks remain intact, but the boat pier has been transformed to connect with a Reception area and a vehicle track that encircles the entire island. The forest is now equipped with a footpath leading to a swimming pool adjacent to the beach. Furthermore, an open restaurant has been established to the south, and a hotel occupies the central region of the island. The section where the natural spring was located has now been developed to include a hotel extension, while new additions such as a scenic lookout on the western edge and a fish and chips shop in the southeast highlight the island’s evolution into a more resort-oriented destination.
