Maps of the Seychelles in University Libraries GRMC


Final Destination: Maps of the Seychelles Available in University Libraries

The final day of the Today Show “Where in the World Is Matt Lauer?” adventure has the host landing in the country of the Seychelles. Travelers to this Indian Ocean island paradise will enjoy the beautiful sights, white sand beaches, and crystal turquoise waters.

The University Libraries Geospatial Resources & Map Collection offers several resources for tourists visiting the Seychelles. Seychelles: Detailed, Informative, Practice, Including Victoria Town Plan is an invaluable tourist map. The convenient folded map features a location map, a map of Victoria’s city center, the city of Beau Vallon, maps of the botanical gardens and Bird Island, and the Vallee de Mai Nature Trail. The map also shows a calendar of events and language tips. The legend is printed in English, German, and French.

The Atlas Collection on the second floor of Bracken Library also has an informative atlas about the country, Atlas for Seychelles. The atlas features several thematic maps of the country and also maps showing the relationship of the Seychelles to the rest of the world.
