ALGIERS · 2027 SOLAR ECLIPSE

Solar Eclipse in Algiers — 2 August 2027

The reference coordinate for Algiers is calculated as partial for the 2 August 2027 eclipse.

Central Algiers is outside totality at the tested coordinate. The calculated 99.8% obscuration is extremely close to total, but it remains a partial eclipse with no safe unfiltered phase.

Move the SunPoint pin to test another exact position rather than extending one city-centre result across the whole area.

Classification applies to the stated coordinate, not every point in the city or region.

Is the eclipse total in Algiers?

No at the tested city-centre coordinate. Algiers receives a deep partial eclipse, not totality.

Central Algiers is outside totality at the tested coordinate. The calculated 99.8% obscuration is extremely close to total, but it remains a partial eclipse with no safe unfiltered phase.

Local time, altitude and direction

Calculated maximum is 09:58 GMT+1. The Sun is 47.2° high at an azimuth of 104.0°.

Azimuth is the compass bearing; altitude is the angle above the astronomical horizon. The real sightline still needs checking.

Check another exact point

Near a path edge, a small move can change totality duration. Put the pin where you actually expect to stand and compare the result.

Solar viewing safety

Use suitable eclipse glasses or a safe indirect method throughout every partial phase. Ordinary sunglasses and cloud are not eye protection.

There is no total phase at this coordinate, so suitable protection is required throughout direct viewing.

Authoritative sources and safety

Use authoritative eclipse data before travel and use proper solar-viewing protection during partial phases.

Photography and horizon tips

  • Save the exact coordinate.
  • Inspect the horizon in the calculated bearing.
  • Bring compliant solar-viewing protection.
