Dark Sky Policy

We would like your input on a potential new Dark Sky policy for the Town of Yarmouth. The purpose of the policy is to reduce the harmful effects of light pollution, and to preserve the Dark Sky our region has become known for.

Did You Know? Yarmouth & Acadian Shores is where you can find some of the darkest and clearest skies in North America. In fact, the region is so perfectly suited for viewing the night sky that it has been designated the first Starlight Reserve in North America by The International Starlight Foundation, as well as one of AirBNB’s trending astro tourism destinations.
