Desert Stargazing

Do you enjoy stargazing???????⁠

Yes! ??⭐⁠

Then just wait the next couple of days from Aug. 11-12 the Perseid Meteor Shower will be taking place!⁠

For the best viewing of the Perseid meteor shower, look before twilight Aug. 12. Make sure you are away from light population. ⁠

We are excited to see the Earth pass through the lost dust of Comet Swift-Tuttle ?⁠

There are plenty amazing opportunities to star watch here in the desert, Check out our top 3 places:

1.You can set up your telescope or book a Palm Springs Stargazing tour. Almost anywhere in Palm Springs can show you some beautiful night skies….just sneak away from as much light population as you can!

2.Rancho Mirage Observatory: The out-of-this-world research-grade facility is open to the public and has its own on-site astronomer. Curious to know the myth behind Ursa Major or the meaning behind Orion’s Belt? Book a stargazing tour!

3.Joshua Tree National Park: A wonderful place to camp and fall asleep under the stars! On a clear night and moonless, you should have no problem viewing the stars from anywhere in the park.


And remember….to make a wish! ⁠
