Eclipse 2027 in Touissite: how long does totality last?

Touissite misses totality, and only barely: the edge of the band is about 20 km away. This is the most frustrating place to be on eclipse day, and the most fixable: a short drive puts you inside.

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.

Frequently asked questions

Will the 2027 eclipse be total in Touissite?

No. Touissite is outside the path and sees a partial eclipse of about 99.7% at maximum. The nearest edge of the band is roughly 20 km away.

What time is the eclipse in Touissite?

Maximum eclipse is at 08:51:48 local time (Africa/Casablanca). The partial phase begins at 07:42:57 and ends at 10:07:33.

Will terrain block the view?

Almost certainly not. The Sun is 42.3° 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.
