Stargazing on Pensacola Beach

Discover the greatness of the night sky on beautiful Pensacola Beach. The Escambia Amateur Astronomers’ Association will offer free star gazing at the Gulfside Pavilion on August 4&5.  Stargazing will be held on a Friday and/or Saturday and will start at sunset at varying times throughout the summer based on daylight. Volunteers will set up nearly 20 telescopes ranging in strength and size from duplicates of Galileo’s original telescope to today’s incredible large-scope devices for the public to take a peek at wonders such as Jupiter, the Milky Way and other galaxies.
