Solar Eclipse Guide Spain 2026/2027/2028 - Planning, Equipment, Observation, Photography

A quarter of a century after the unforgettable total solar eclipse of 11.8.1999, the shadow of the moon will return to Europe - three times in a row! On 12.8.2026, 2.8.2027 and 26.1.2028, two total and one annular eclipse will take place in the sky over our continent.

All three events will take place in Spain, the No. 1 vacation destination for Germans, and will be visible in well-known tourist destinations such as Mallorca and Andalusia. The authors, both of whom have lived in Spain for many years, have visited many suitable destinations and provide valuable first-hand tips on observation sites
The weather outlook for each eclipse is discussed in detail. Detailed topographical maps show the exact route of the eclipse path, and many photos make you want to create your own (astro)tourist program.
This book is an indispensable source of information for anyone who does not want to miss a trip to one of the three eclipses - the next opportunity in Europe will not come until 2053!

The "Solar Eclipse Atlas" linked below is the ideal supplement to this book.
