What you'll see in Gibraltar

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

Gibraltar sees 4m28s of totality with the Sun 38° above the Rock — the whole territory is inside the path.

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 10:45:39–10:50:07 UTC+2, when the Sun is fully covered from Gibraltar.
