The maps indicate the changes to Paradise Island in the past and in the present.
Overall, the period observed many major changes to the island. From just being used for scientific research, the island developed into a modern resort complex with many recreational and commercial features being put up.
In the past, the island consisted of a scientific research station on the left side and a natural spring on the opposite. In its primitive stage, the island had many coconut trees. To the left of the main land was a pier which was only big enough for boats’ arrivals. Not too far from there was a beach. Additionally, there were rocks at the top-right of the maps.
Nowadays, the island saw numerous changes. There was a construction of a hotel complex, a swimming pool, an open restaurant with a BBQ area, and a cafe. There was also the presence of a cycle path around the island, with signs being equipped, and a scenic lookout near the rocks for visitors. Furthermore, the beach was adjusted in a way that it allowed swimming. The pier was enlarged to improve access to the island.
