Will the 2027 eclipse be total in Fuengirola?
Yes. Fuengirola is inside the path of totality on 2 August 2027, and totality lasts 3m 11s, from 10:47:08 to 10:50:19 local time.

Will terrain block the view?
Almost certainly not. The Sun is 39.1° 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.
