Western Australia Stargazing
The Envy of the world!
Western Australia is renowned for some of the world’s best Stargazing, here’s why:
- Perth is the most isolated continental capital city in the world so you don't have to travel far from the bright city lights to see beautiful night skies full of stars.
- With low humidity, clean air & very little light pollution, Western Australia boasts some of the darkest night skies in the world, making it an absolute mecca for Stargazers from all around the globe.
- Country Western Australia is uncrowded and offers an array of ideal observing sites in welcoming country towns.
- Being in the Earth's Southern Hemisphere allows us to see the best part of the Milky Way Galaxy all year round!
