Get to Know Astronomy Bali
Our Story
It started with a simple love for the night sky. Our founder, Gabrielle, saw astronomy as something for everyone—not just the scientifically inclined or those with access to fancy equipment. She believed astronomy shouldn’t be locked up in labs or made complicated. It should be simple, shared, and for everyone — whether you know what a nebula is or just think the stars are pretty.
As we hosted our first few stargazing nights, word spread, and our community grew. New faces joined in, each with their own reasons to be curious about what lies above. What started as a small group of sky enthusiasts has since grown into a community that’s still evolving, bringing people together to enjoy the night sky in a relaxed and welcoming way.
At Astronomy Bali, we offer more than stargazing. Through a holistic approach, we’ve created a gateway to the universe—where astronomy meets adventure. From astrotourism and immersive sky-watching to hands-on workshops, our programs foster a deeper connection with the stars. Here, we don’t just observe the night sky; we create experiences that inspire a sense of wonder and belonging in the universe.
