Total Solar Eclipse 2027
 
I really to do this eclipse and just wondering what people think the best spots will be. I know Luxor is probably the overall best but I imagine that will be so crowded. I am thinking Tunisia or Algeria as best combination where you still get 5-6 minutes of totality but will not be as crazy busy. I am guessing Libya will still not be really ready for tourism. Anyoneh ave thoughts for where will be best?

Luxor will clearly be best - over 6 min of totality! It's pretty much the peak eclipse around Luxor.

But I'd say that anywhere just east or west of Luxor will be pretty good. I'm considering Sfax (Tunisia). Benghazi would be great but ...
