قراءة كل التفاصيل
The source listing mentions workshops and activities.
The Perseids are among the most spectacular meteor showers of the year, and a guided stargazing event on Wednesday 12 and Thursday 13 August 2026 offers the perfect way to witness them. Amiantos, a mountain village in the Limassol region, provides excellent dark skies away from coastal light pollution.
Expect to see dozens of meteors per hour at peak activity. A night-sky guide or local astronomer typically accompanies the group, explaining constellations, meteor origins, and pointing out notable celestial features. Bring blankets, a thermos of tea, and patience—meteor watching rewards those who settle in for the long night.
The Perseids peak around 11–13 August, so both nights offer strong viewing chances. Clear skies and a half-lit moon make for ideal observing conditions. A unique and peaceful way to experience Cyprus's mountains after dark.
ما يمكن توقعه
