Observation evening in Dark Sky Park De Boschplaat
Dark Sky Wadden Events organizes unique observation evenings at Dark Sky Park De Boschplaat. Enjoy the Milky Way at the darkest spot in the Netherlands with commentary by a professional astronomer. Weather permitting, there is also the opportunity to observe through an advanced telescope. We will also walk through the dunes to get an optimal view of the starry sky from a dune hollow. The next series of observation evenings will take place in the summer of 2027. Please note that the observation evenings will only proceed in sufficiently clear weather! If it is cloudy, you can change the booking to another date or receive a refund.

Important to know
The explanation is in a small group of maximum 15 people. On request, the explanation can also be given in English. In case of cloudy weather, an alternative date will be proposed in consultation with the participants. When the moon is visible in the evening, the Milky Way is less visible. Then a nice alternative is offered: observing the mountains and craters on the moon through an advanced telescope. Bring a sweater or jacket, even in the summer it can get quite cool in the evenings. Please be there 10 minutes before the start of the activity.
