The best places to observe shooting stars

1

By the sea

By the sea

By the sea the setting is certainly more romantic and there are relatively dark places between Naples and the darkest province where we can observe the sky. Let's position ourselves where light pollution is low, so it's better to move away a little from the city.

We recommend going to the seaside in the shores of Varcaturo or on the beaches and the Lungomare di Pozzuoli because generally the brightest lights are behind us.
