What you'll see in Gabès
Artist's impression. The Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude from Gabès; the skyline itself is generic.
Gabès gets 4m08s of totality where the path meets the Gulf of Gabès, with the Sun 56° up.
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 10:08:47–10:12:55 UTC+1, when the Sun is fully covered from Gabès.
