What you'll see in Bosaso

Artist's impression of totality over Bosaso: the Moon fully covering the Sun, with the corona showing around it.

Artist's impression. The Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude from Bosaso; the skyline itself is generic.

Bosaso is the last city on land to see totality — 4m08s, with the Sun 58° up, before the shadow runs out into the Indian Ocean.

The Sun is high in the sky here, so unlike a low-horizon eclipse you do not need a distant, unobstructed skyline — but a courtyard or a narrow street can still put a rooftop in the way. Step somewhere with open sky overhead.

⚠ Eye safety

Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses for the entire partial phase. The ONLY exception is 13:58:18–14:02:26 UTC+3, when the Sun is fully covered from Bosaso.
