Stargazing Activiy – Costa del Sol under the stars
The good weather, cloudless skies, pleasant temperatures and the darkness are the main factors that make Costa del Sol a benchmark for the practice of astro-tourism. Its wide range of daytime activities is complemented by the chance of enjoying a night sky full of stars. Inside the province of Malaga there are some areas free of light pollution that allow visitors to contemplate the Milky Way with the naked eye and the details of some planets or galaxies by means of a
telescope.
In addition, Costa del Sol has a lot of places such as large terraces, hotels or, even golf courses, that are suitable for installing telescopes and learn about the Cosmos from the city, observing the brightest objects in the sky, for example, certain stars, planets or the moon.
On Costa del Sol, AstroAndalus is a travel agency specialized in this type of tourism, astronomical tourism. This company offers group activities or private ones but all of them with astronomy as the main element. Stargazing sessions in the country, astronomical observations in the city, wine tasting under the stars or nautical astronomy workshops in the sea are some of the guided activities that AstroAndalus with its astronomical telescopes and the explanations of qualified
monitors offers to visitors who want to discover the astonishing night sky of Costa del Sol.
