Our Stellar Location
We’re based at the beautiful Finca Astronomica in Campo de Cartagena. Nestled amidst vegetable fields and away from city lights, it’s a prime spot for starry nights. While this is our home base, we’re expanding and planning trips to other amazing locations for special celestial events.
