The Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park offers a remarkable setting with minimal light pollution, ideal for observing constellations with the naked eye. An expert astronomy guide will assist in recognizing the main constellations and planets visible in the night sky.

This experience includes a journey through the stars to explore the mythology behind each constellation, as well as understanding the Earth's movement and its effect on the calendar, tides, and eclipses. At the end of the tour, binoculars will be used for enhanced observation.
