Travel Info What is the best place to see stars in southern california? Travel Tips The high desert, hands down! Go to places like Joshua Tree National Park, preferably during the full moon. At night it feels like you're looking up at a huge dome of lights. You'll see more falling stars in one night than you have in your life. Meteor showers in the high desert are especially beautiful. Or are you talking about movie stars and rock stars? If that's the case, visit Amoeba Records in Hollywood. I've seen quite a few there, but my wife has a keener eye for that sort of thing than I do. Others The Pennisula Hotel in Beverly Hills on Little Santa Monica Blvd They are all there! Enjoy! Hollywood or Beverly hills I generally recommend that you should be looking skyward at nighttime. Yes? The telescope located on Palomar Mountain was the largest conventional research telescope for many years. Mount Palomar is about 70 miles from San Diego. It was placed there because of the clarity of the sky at the time in the late 1940's. I went there with a small telescope about 1970. There is some current light pollution, but you will still have a great view of the sky. In the mountains. That's where we go to get away from the city lights. Point Loma in San Diego gets my vote. |
