1 min read
The total solar eclipse of Monday 2 August 2027 is the only one visible from mainland Europe this decade, and southern Spain is the practical place to see it.
Key points
- Gibraltar airport is about 20 minutes from Sotogrande, Málaga about an hour and Jerez about 90 minutes.
- Stay inside the path of totality: Seville and Granada city are outside it, and Málaga city gets only about 2 minutes.
- Keep cameras, lenses and solar filters in cabin baggage, and use ISO 12312-2 glasses for every partial phase.
- Plan a long weekend or a 5–7 day stay and leave the car parked on eclipse morning.
This is a short digest. The complete, always up-to-date article, including current prices and availability, lives on the dedicated eclipse site.
