Port Louis on the island of Mauritius follows in second place (global ranking 17th) and Malawi's capital Lilongwe in third place (global: 21st).

Ranking them according to the CIELAB colour scale, the S Money team then translated those colours into the hex colour code for each sky so the results could be accurately shown online.
