What is a Starlight Destination?

The Starlight Foundation recognizes the unbeatable situation for observing the night sky, free from the pollution that prevails in most places. The system is based on the principles of the 'Declaration on the Defense of the Night Sky and the Right to Starlight'.”.

Since 2017, the Atlantic Islands Maritime-Terrestrial National Park has held this certificate. The National Park has received this recognition for its excellent qualities for stargazing offering visitors the possibility to observe the stars and astronomical phenomena in a sky free of light pollution.
