Huelva
5 cities evaluated. Data based on the real-horizon model with SRTM 30 m.
In Huelva province, totality won't be visible, but 5 of the 5 cities surveyed will see a significant partial eclipse before sunset.
Historical weather data points to lepe, almonte and isla cristina as the clearest spots: climatology (median p25-p75 cloud cover at sunset in August, Open-Meteo ERA5) places lepe around 0% cloud cover, well below the Huelva average.
The clearest western horizon belongs to almonte, where the topographic horizon sits at just 0.1° altitude at the evaluated contact — a critical figure for catching C4 with the Sun very low in August 2026.
