space retreat

Hello All,

I would like to ask for advice on holidays. Not any holiday, but something with a space theme. I am thinking of taking an extended weekend to get away from Sydney (but not interstate or anywhere too far). I would love to spend the day watching nature, people, or kayaking etc and spend the nights at an observatory or beginners astronomy camp re-learning astronomy (viewing stars, planets, galaxies, discuss telescopes) at a beginners/learners level.

Does anyone know if any observatories/associations outside of Sydney cater for something like this in the coming month or 2?

Has anyone done something like this before and have any recommendations on where to start and the best place to go at this time of the year where its not too empty and outback.

Many thanks in advance for any ideas

Jono
