Kerry International Dark Sky Reserve

Stargazing to the sound of the ocean in pristine dark skies is as good as it gets.

The lack of light pollution In the Kerry International Gold Tier Dark Sky Reserve, means you see the star constellations and planets as they were seen by your ancestors.

The reserve is a public access area covering most of South Kerry and there is no fee and no constraints on access. You are free to stargaze at your leisure and do not need to hire a guide.

We do offer stargazing services for individuals or groups subject to Moon Phase and weather. Stargazing experiences generally last about 90 minutes. Fees are 25 Euro per person with a minimum charge of Euro 50 per session.

As it is not dark enough for stargazing in June July & August until midnight we do not offer stargazing services during these months.

As we are on the Atlantic Seaboard stargazing weather is not predictable more than about 24 Hours in advance and we therefore do not accept long term bookings.
