National parks and other protected areas are marked and a wide range of symbols indicate various places of interest and recreational facilities, with main sights clearly highlighted. Most titles distinguish between sandy and pebble beaches; some also indicate beaches with natural shade and/or the type of sea bed. The maps have a UTM grid, plus latitude and longitude margin ticks. The reverse side of each title is covered by general information about the island, illustrated with colour photos. Many titles also include brief descriptions of recommended hiking trails and/or a street plan of the island’s main town, with colouring clearly showing various tourist facilities.To see the other titles in this series please click on the series link.
