Product Info
The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.
- Watch the Perseid meteor shower while lying on a kayak. Observe the meteor shower from the sea. More than 40 meteors are predicted to appear per hour. The sea is an excellent observation spot with little artificial light and an unobstructed view of the entire sky. Wait for the shooting stars to appear while admiring the summer Milky Way stretching across the sky. It is one of the three major meteor showers and one of the most prolific meteor showers of the year. This year, there will be no interference from moonlight, so observation conditions are excellent. The event will be held to coincide with the time when the radiant point (the starting point of the meteors) is high in the sky. Experience the rare and amazing feeling of encountering shooting stars while floating on the sea. We accept same-day reservations, so feel free to decide after checking the weather. This is a meet-up and dispersal plan at the location. *The kayaks will be moored in knee-deep water along the shore, so you can rest assured.
- The three major meteor showers!! The Perseid meteor shower
- The Perseid meteor shower is one of the best meteor showers for meteor viewing. Approximately 40 meteors per hour are predicted to be visible to the naked eye, and you can reliably see shooting stars every year. In 2026, there will be no interference from moonlight, making for excellent viewing conditions.
- An extremely rare experience!! Stargazing at the night sky from the ocean and shooting stars
- We'll be observing from a kayak on the sea. The Milky Way runs across the sky near the zenith, and you can see a wide expanse of the sky, making it an excellent spot for searching for shooting stars. Experience the thrill of searching for shooting stars from the sea, a rare opportunity.
- The summer Milky Way also offers excellent viewing conditions.
- The best time to observe meteor showers is when the summer sky is near the zenith and the Milky Way stretches overhead. The radiant point is located slightly lower in the sky than the Milky Way, so you can look for shooting stars while admiring the Milky Way.
