Certified dark-sky places

Where the sky is still dark

One page for each of the 245 places certified by DarkSky International in the countries we cover: how dark the sky there really is (an approximate Bortle class from the 2024 light-pollution atlas), the nearest big cities with a rough drive estimate, a live seven-night forecast for the site's own coordinates, the moon-free windows coming up, how often each month's nights actually stayed clear there over five years, and a calendar you can subscribe to. Every number is computed for that spot; nothing is a template with the figures swapped.
