UpToWhereEclipse 2027 in Djamaa: how long does totality last?
Djamaa is outside the path of totality. The Sun will be 98.4% covered at maximum, which is dramatic and is not the same phenomenon: the corona only appears when the disc is fully hidden. The band is about 69 km away.

Drag through the eclipse, or press play. Every time, position and darkness level is computed for this exact spot.
Notice the sky: it never goes dark here. Even a deep partial eclipse leaves ordinary daylight, which is why the drive into the band is worth it. Disc sizes are exaggerated; times and geometry are computed for this exact point.

Will the 2027 eclipse be total in Djamaa?
No. Djamaa is outside the path and sees a partial eclipse of about 98.4% at maximum. The nearest edge of the band is roughly 69 km away.
What time is the eclipse in Djamaa?
Maximum eclipse is at 10:03:37 local time (Africa/Algiers). The partial phase begins at 08:50:22 and ends at 11:23:00.
Will terrain block the view?
Almost certainly not. The Sun is 51.2° above the horizon here at maximum, so an obstruction would have to be extraordinarily close and tall. That was the decisive question for the 2026 eclipse, when the Sun was nearly setting, and it will be again for the January 2028 annular eclipse.
