Sauta Cave National Wildlife Refuge

Anytime at dusk between June and August is great for bat viewing. If you can go during a full moon with no cloud obstruction you will get a much better view of the bats. Conversely, cloudy nights with low light can make this a lack luster experience. Pro Tip: Keep in mind, it doesn’t have to be a full moon, but the more light, the better.
