METEOR SHOWERS IN 2022 AND WHERE TO WATCH THEM

 

For many, watching a summer meteor shower of shooting stars has become something of a tradition. It’s definitely a great way of making lasting memories and enjoying all the beauty of nature during your holiday.

For those of you who are still unfamiliar with the calendar of astronomical events, this summer there will be Delta Aquariid meteor showers, as well as the better known Tears of Saint Lawrence or Perseids.

 

If this is the first time you will be admiring this phenomenon, follow these tips to guarantee a truly magical night:

 

  1. Stay away from towns and built-up areas. Avoiding light pollution is essential in order to enjoy the clear skies and maximum visibility.
  2. Give your eyes time to adjust to the darkness. Although it may seem obvious, many people forget just how important it is to let your eyes adjust to the darkness, as this will enable you to spot the stars when they appear.
  3. Take your time. It’s a question of patience. Enjoy the moment and give it time. The meteor shower will appear when you least expect it and you’ll realise that it was well worth the wait.
  4. Take a jacket. It may be summer, but in many places, the temperature drops during the night. As we don’t want you to have to go away disappointed at missing the spectacle because of the cold, take our advice and remember to take something that will keep you snug and warm.
  5. Be in the know. Read up on astronomy and find out about what you will be able to see during these nights. You’ll get so much more out of the experience that way.

 

And last but not least, it’s essential to choose the right location to watch the shooting stars. As major fans of everything related to making the most of our amazing locations, here’s our list of the best places to watch the meteor showers on Mallorca, Ibiza, the Costa del Sol and Lanzarote:

Where to see the stars on Mallorca

The so-called “grey zone” is the perfect spot for watching meteor showers on Mallorca. It includes places such as Escorca, Fornalutx or Cap de Formentor. All ideal locations for enjoying the spectacular sight of shooting stars as they cross the Mallorcan sky on summer nights.

 

 

Where to see the stars on Ibiza

As we’ve already mentioned, the experts always recommend avoiding highly lit areas, which is why on Ibiza, favourite spots with many include any of the coves dotted along the coast of Santa Eulàlia or Sant Josep, where the beaches are particularly dark during the night hours.

Where to see the stars on the Costa del Sol
