What you'll see in Siwa Oasis
Artist's impression. The Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude from Siwa Oasis; the skyline itself is generic.
Siwa Oasis sees 5m33s of totality under a 76° Sun, in one of the driest and clearest places on the whole 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 12:42:42–12:48:15 UTC+3, when the Sun is fully covered from Siwa Oasis.
