Viewing advice

Annularity is visible only inside the narrow path. ISO 12312-2-compliant eye protection is required throughout an annular eclipse; recheck current AAS safety guidance and local circumstances before travel.

The best time to see Annular Solar Eclipse of 2027 in 2027 is February 6, 2027. Timing status: Predicted dates.

A ring of fire crosses Patagonia and the South Atlantic.

The Moon will appear too small to cover the Sun completely, leaving a bright ring along a narrow path through southern Chile and Argentina before the antumbral shadow crosses the South Atlantic. Weather and local visibility are never guaranteed.

Where to view it

Only the bright line sees totality, when the Sun goes fully dark. Anywhere off the line, nearby regions get a partial eclipse, so you'll want to travel to the path. Tap a marker on it to plan a trip from that spot.
