Join us for an evening under the stars. Our guides will take you on a tour first using the naked eye, where we discuss different stars and constellations such as the Southern Cross as you learn to navigate the night sky. Get up close with our quality Celestron electronically guided telescope. This scope is great for looking at deep sky objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye, such as the Omega Cluster, or Sombrero Galaxy. We also have our range of manual telescopes which are great for a free roam experience. Our astro binoculars work great on our lounges, where you can lie back fully and gaze up at the wonders above. Pair these with our interactive star finder and test your navigation skills.
