Can you imagine contemplating the stars in the middle of a beautiful Natural Park? Be mesmerized with this Cabo de Gata Stargazing Experience in one of the most incredible enclaves in Spain.

Cabo de Gata Stargazing Experience

We'll meet in the Los Genoveses beach car park to carry out the star observation. The location may vary to find the best conditions for the activity. We'll provide you with all the necessary equipment to enjoy the experience comfortably.

The Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park is a spot without light pollution, ideal for distinguishing constellations with the naked eye. Our expert astronomy guide will teach you to recognize the main constellations and planets that light up the night sky.

The experience includes a journey through the stars to learn about the mythology behind each constellation. We'll discuss the influence of the Earth's movements and other stars on the calendar, tides, and eclipses. Towards the end, we'll use binoculars for a detailed view.

After the visit, participants will know how to identify visible planets, artificial satellites, different types of stars, and constellations. The tour will conclude by returning to the starting point.
