Best Place To Watch Perseid Meteor Shower. The dramatic perseids display is your best bet for celestial entertainment but two other meteor showers — southern delta aquariids and alpha capricornids — are both active. So the best time to watch for perseids will be starting around midnight.

12, when there is almost no moon. The infamous perseid meteor shower is active from july 17 to august 24, and on august 12, you can see up to 100 meteors per hour!
