💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting the Delta Dark Sky Areas, the best times to experience the stunning night skies are during the months of April to September, when the weather is milder and the skies are clearer. Dress in layers to accommodate the temperature drop at night, and don’t forget a warm hat and gloves. Bring a telescope or binoculars for stargazing, along with a camera with a tripod for capturing the breathtaking celestial displays; consider using a wide-angle lens for the Milky Way. Be mindful of local wildlife, especially at night, and always follow Leave No Trace principles to preserve the natural beauty. Finally, respect the tranquility of the area by keeping noise levels down, allowing everyone to enjoy the peaceful, star-filled experience.
