Identify the constellations, find a planet, gaze at shooting stars. The show is especially engaging on evenings with a new moon or very little moonlight. ![](https://www.st-georgesresort.com/images/easyblog_images/571/b2ap3_medium_SGCR-night-sky_JamiLeslieFeldman.jpg "A recent guest captured this amazing shot of the Overwater Cabanas with the star-filled sky behind. ") # Want a front row seat to a meteor shower? Plan your Belize trip to coincide with meteor showers and low moonlight – and find a place with very little ambient light for the best star viewing, like St. George’s Caye. Meteor showers are especially fantastic from our secluded Belize island resort. Choose a lounge chair on the beach, grab a Belikin or fruity rum drink, and lay back for a wonderful show. **Mark your calendars! We can’t wait for meteor showers that coincide with low moonlight: July 30th, Oct 22nd, and Nov 18th.** Here is a helpful calendar of meteor showers in 2017: [http://www.amsmeteors.org/meteor-s…/2017-meteor-shower-list/](http://www.amsmeteors.org/meteor-showers/2017-meteor-shower-list/) ![](https://www.st-georgesresort.com/images/easyblog_images/571/b2ap3_medium_stars-in-the-night-sky.jpg) ### “I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” ~Vincent Van Gogh [ Tweet ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.st-georgesresort.com%2Fisland-blog%2Fentry%2Fwatch-meteor-showers-from-a-secluded-caribbean-island&text=Watch+Stars+%26+Meteor+Showers+from+a+Secluded+Caribbean+Island) [ pinterest ](https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.st-georgesresort.com%2Fisland-blog%2Fentry%2Fwatch-meteor-showers-from-a-secluded-caribbean-island&media=https%3A%2F%2Fbelizeislandparadise.com%2Fbelizeislandparadise.com%2Fimages%2Feasyblog_articles%2F83%2Fb2ap3_thumbnail_AerialViewSGCR.jpg&description=Watch+Stars+%26+Meteor+Showers+from+a+Secluded+Caribbean+Island) Tags: [St. George's Caye](https://www.st-georgesresort.com/island-blog/tags/st-georges-caye) [Belize island resort](https://www.st-georgesresort.com/island-blog/tags/belize-island-resort) [×](https://belizeislandparadise.com/javascript:void(0);) Stay Informed When you subscribe to the blog, we will send you an e-mail when there are new updates on the site so you wouldn't miss them.
