Dark Sky Ecotourism provides a guide for tourism businesses, education providers, including our partners, as well as for tourism ecosystems and wider stakeholders. The objective of the Guide is to introduce the concept of Dark Sky Ecotourism and the opportunities it presents.
The Dark Sky Audit and Ecotourism Assessment Tool is designed to achieve widespread use and impact. It includes a set of two online, Ecotourism checklists, which enable our users to evaluate their location and capacity and self-assess if they well positioned both in terms of location and current skills levels to become dark sky ecotourism promoters.
Dark Sky Ecotourism’s VET Programme will focus on how to create new/alternative dark sky ecotourism products, services and destinations which play to geographical strengths and make best/most environmentally friendly use of natural resources.
Our mission is to educate people about apps that will provide rural/remote tourism business owners wider communities, individuals, and European tourists with informal bite sized learning opportunities on topics related to dark skies such as astronomy, light pollution, ecotourism, rural/remote life on Europe, natural tourism, night tours, nocturnal safaris and much more.
