Why you’ll love this…

Barbecue buffet dinner at a beach restaurant with drinks
Look for stars, shooting stars, the moon, planets and satellites in both hemispheres
Learn about constellations and how to spot them with the naked eye

What to expect

The star-studded night sky is best viewed close to the equator, where both hemispheres are visible. You'll arrive to a beach restaurant just as darkness draws in, and after a welcome drink you'll sit down for a barbecue buffet. Tuck into a feast of local dishes to the sounds of live music, and with the help of telescopes, lasers and tablets, you'll see the moon, planets and more.

With knowledgeable guides at hand, you'll learn how to recognise constellations at home. The tour ends with a 10-minute stroll on the sands, where you'll spot patterns with the naked eye. A unique yet educational way to spend a night in Sal.
