Eclipse 2026 · Spain
22 cities in Galicia
In the Galicia region, totality will cross 9 cities, 2 of them at sunset. The other 13 cities will see a significant partial eclipse.
Historical weather data points to pontevedra, ourense and santiago de compostela as the clearest spots: climatology (median p25-p75 cloud cover at sunset in August, Open-Meteo ERA5) places pontevedra around 0% cloud cover, well below the Galicia average.
The clearest western horizon belongs to vigo, where the topographic horizon sits at just -0.3° altitude at the evaluated contact — a critical figure for catching C4 with the Sun very low in August 2026.
