Mallorca Sunset Eclipse Tour 2026

Imagine witnessing the breathtaking sight of a total solar eclipse right above the horizon at sunset, experienced from an exquisite five-star resort on the stunning Spanish island of Mallorca!

Join us on this unforgettable journey to witness the celestial event on August 12, 2026, as the Moon's shadow sweeps across Spain, and the eclipsed Sun hovers a mere few degrees above the western skyline. This unique sight, where the Sun’s silhouette morphs into an oval due to atmospheric refraction, promises an experience like no other.

Set on the idyllic island of Mallorca, just off the Spanish coast, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the interplay of celestial geometry that creates extraordinary atmospheric effects when totality occurs so low in the sky. You'll enjoy a fantastic view of the Balearic Sea from the prestigious Jumeirah Port Sóller Hotel & Spa, perched majestically atop a cliff. With all rooms and terraces facing the ocean, your view of the eclipse will be unhindered.

Thanks to favorable cloud patterns, the probability of clear skies on the day of the eclipse is significantly high—about 75%, according to meteorologist Jay Anderson. Past data suggests that the western coasts of the Balearic Islands are particularly lucky on such occasions, enhancing your chances of a perfect viewing experience.

Totality duration will be relatively short but unforgettable—1 minute and 34 seconds from Port de Sóller! The partial eclipse kicks off at 7:38 p.m., reaching mid-eclipse at 8:31:32 p.m. with the Sun just 2½° above the horizon, continuing until sunset at 8:50 p.m.

This tour, expertly arranged with our travel partner Royal Adventures, starts in the vibrant city of Barcelona before crossing the Balearic Sea to Mallorca. After your exhilarating eclipse experience, you can choose to fly home via Madrid or extend your stay in beautiful Spain.
