2027 Total Solar Eclipse in Gibraltar: Timings & Travel

Compare the Rock and Europa Point as separate coordinates in the Strait of Gibraltar. A landmark pin identifies a reference location, not a guaranteed accessible viewpoint. Check the Sun’s direction and local access at the position you choose.

On 2 August 2027, 4 of the 4 Gibraltar catalogue locations receive totality. The longest sampled duration is 4m 31s at Europa Point Lighthouse. This is a comparison of stored locations, not a national maximum across every coordinate.

Viewing locations and local timings

Open a detailed destination for local contact times and timezone, or a map link for the exact calculation. Times apply at the pin; nearby buildings, terrain and access must be assessed separately.

Historical weather coverage

1 stored regional weather grid match catalogue coordinates in Gibraltar. Compare the daily cloud means above and read a destination page for the complete sample. These observations describe previous eclipse seasons, not the weather at maximum eclipse in 2027. Compare the historical weather methodology and available regions.

Airports, accommodation and places of interest

The airport column offers a starting point for planning arrival. Distances are straight-line, and same-country airports are preferred. Open a destination’s accommodation link to check a provider search, or select a map pin to inspect transport and nearby attractions. No flight, room or site availability is implied.

These additional points help compare the path and build a wider itinerary. Locations with only basic catalogue descriptions open directly on the map. Partial-eclipse stops require a separate journey into totality.

Calculated astronomy uses NASA / Fred Espenak Besselian elements, a sea-level WGS84 observer and a smooth lunar limb. Historical weather is regional context, not a forecast. Airport routes, site access, travel advice and accommodation availability require current checks. Read the Sources & method.
