Is there anything more romantic than stargazing? Certainly not! ;-D

Aotea Great Barrier Island is an International Dark Sky Sanctuary

Here, light pollution is minimal, and the night sky is wonderfully dark.
We see ten times as many stars here as in Auckland, for example.
This is why Aotea is such a great place to discover the stars.
And why Good Heavens guides love to take you stargazing here.
Our guides will meet you on top of a sand dune,
with a telescope, binoculars, chairs and blankets
And while you lean back, hearing the waves on the beach below,
Good Heavens guides entertain you with interesting facts and the fascinating stories

Come stargazing with your loved one, and with Good Heavens! It’s the romantic thing to do.
