DR ‹ › On August 2, 2027, a total solar eclipse will sweep across parts of southern Spain, North Africa, the Middle East, and the Horn of Africa, plunging areas along its path into complete darkness. Among the key destinations in the band of totality is Tangier, Morocco, where the eclipse is expected to last approximately 4 minutes and 51 seconds. Tangier offers an ideal setting to witness the rare astronomical event, The Week Magazine wrote, listing the city among five locations. Visitors can watch the skies darken from the historic Kasbah, known for its panoramic sea views, or explore the city's botanical gardens and the Rmilat Forest, home to eucalyptus, palms, pines, and oaks. The eclipse is expected to bring a noticeable drop in temperature and a moment of stillness, a striking natural spectacle over northern Morocco's Atlantic coast.
