Historical weather data points to huelva, lepe and almonte as the clearest spots: climatology (median p25-p75 cloud cover at sunset in August, Open-Meteo ERA5) places huelva around 0% cloud cover.
The clearest western horizon belongs to almonte, where the topographic horizon sits at just 0.2° altitude at the evaluated contact — a critical figure for catching C4 with the Sun very low in August 2026.
