What you'll see in Ceuta

Artist's impression of totality over Ceuta: 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 Ceuta; the skyline itself is generic.

Ceuta sits almost exactly on the centreline as it crosses the Strait — 4m49s of totality, one of the best-placed cities in Spanish territory.

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 10:45:26–10:50:15 UTC+2, when the Sun is fully covered from Ceuta.
