The area I grew up in, in Ohio, had a sky so dark, you could barely see the blackness of space. Seeing the milky way was a normal occurrence, and now they have built an observatory park there under the Dark Sky Initiative.
Reminds me of the report I got from a nephew, returning from Lanzarote.
He was disappointed at first by what he thought was light pollution - but rapidly struck dumb when he realised the light he saw in the sky was entirely from the stars up there.
Sad to say, with the more general state being heavily light-polluted sickly yellow skies, he'd never seen the milky way and assumed it was a small cluster of stars.
Heh. Like I said; struck dumb.

What did he make to the island itself? I've been many times and I think a lot of it is a barren, volcanic dump.
My brother-in-law has a fancy villa there near Nazaret but it's more for the weather and peace & quiet than anything touristy, or the local scenery.
