LA PALMA (CANARY ISLANDS)

Atmospheric conditions on the island of La Palma make it one of the best places in the world for watching the stars.

This distinction means you can spend whole nights observing the celestial vault like never before. Climb up to the El Roque de los Muchachos Observatory to enjoy an incredible experience. As the sun goes down, a blanket of clouds surrounds the island below the mountain peaks which gives you an amazing feeling of walking in the sky.

The absence of light pollution and the inherent climatic and atmospheric conditions led to its declaration as the world's first Starlight Reserve .
