The Perseid meteor shower offers one of the best meteor showers of the year as they're typically consistent and bright!

PEAK OBSERVATION TIMES

The Perseids occur every year between July 17 and August 24 and tend to peak around August 9-13 for observers with a clear dark sky. NASA recommends the best time to observe the Perseids is between 3AM and dawn, local time.
