The best places in Spain to see the 2026 solar eclipse

11 March 2026

On 12th August 2026, Spain will take centre stage for one of the most anticipated astronomical events in Europe, the solar eclipse. As the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, parts of the country will slip briefly into darkness, turning a summer evening into twilight for up to almost two minutes. The eclipse will sweep across Spain from the Atlantic coast to the Mediterranean, with northern cities and the Balearic Islands sitting right in the path of totality, the only places where the Sun will be completely covered. If you’re planning a trip around the event, Spain offers plenty of places where you can pair the spectacle in the sky with great food, coastal views, and a bit of exploring before the big moment.
