The Perseids meteor shower is one of the clearest and brightest meteor showers of the year. At its peak you can see as many as 50-75 shooting stars an hour and Rosewood Beach is just the place to watch for them! Participants are invited to bring a picnic blanket and snacks and find a seat in the sand to enjoy this once-a-year stargazing experience.
Pre-registration required, but the program is FREE. All participants, children and adults, must register for the program. Program is outdoors so please dress for the weather.
