Duration
1.5 hours
Start/finish:
Puur Terschelling, at Oosterend 39
Included:
Coffee, tea, hot chocolate and island pound cake

Experience an impressive evening that you'll certainly never forget. We drive with a robust Puur 4x4 Landrover across the wide beach to the Boschplaat. This nature reserve was awarded the Dark Sky Park designation in 2015. Under the guidance of a Puur astronomer, we gaze at the sky and enjoy the silence. In the dark, all senses become heightened, so hear, see and experience the darkness. A visit to the Drenkelingenhuisje naturally cannot be missed.

We run this tour from 1st October to 1st April (due to the beach driving permit).

Dark Sky is more than stargazing:

  • Breathe the pure air
  • View the darkest spots of East Terschelling
  • Climb the Drenkelingenhuisje and write your name in it
  • Experience the darkness
  • Observe minimal light pollution
  • Admire the starry sky in clear weather
  • Feel the space
  • Enjoy the silence
  • Listen to animal sounds in the island nature
  • Receive a star chart of the sky afterwards
  • Feel the peace and relaxation
