Port Douglas, North Queensland Australia.

Star Gaze the Port Douglas Night Sky

Sheltered by palm trees, free from bright lights and pollution free, Four Mile Beach is perfect for viewing the Port Douglas night sky. If you enjoy star gazing or watching for shooting stars, then head to the beach on a clear night for unobstructed views to the North, South & East.

If you are interested in finding constellations in the night sky then take a couple of minutes to check out the Port Douglas Night Sky Map (opens new window). This great tool provided by www.skyandtelescope.com will display an interactive star map of the Port Douglas night sky at midnight of the current date. To view a star map of the Port Douglas night sky at a different date or time, change the date/time in the lower left panel of the chart. Enjoy!

Sky and Telescope also offer 'night sky tour' Podcasts which can be downloaded and played back at your leisure. So download a tour, grab your iPod, head to the beach after sunset and follow along as the constellations are pointed out on your night sky tour.
