Tunisia
Look up on 2 August. Then take time to explore.
An encounter with the sky and an invitation to explore Tunisia differently. Plan your journey with Nomadstrek, bringing together eclipse observation, heritage and local encounters.
Totality across part of the country
A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun and completely covers its bright disk as seen from a particular area on Earth. The solar corona then becomes visible around the dark disk of the Moon.
On 2 August 2027, this path of totality will cross part of Tunisia. Totality may last several minutes, depending on the viewing location. Local times and duration depend on exact coordinates and will be specified once a site is confirmed. Weather can limit visibility even inside the path.
The viewing site must lie within the path of totality. It will be confirmed in the program after its coordinates, access and practical conditions have been checked.
This is the geographical area where the Sun will be completely covered. It does not include all of Tunisia: consult the scientific trajectory to locate the area.
The location selected by the organiser is still to be confirmed. A town mentioned in a story or a landscape photograph does not confirm the observation site.
Places to visit before or after the eclipse are planned separately with the team, according to your interests and the possibilities at the time.
These are ideas to discuss with the team. They illustrate Tunisia to explore around the event, rather than a confirmed itinerary or a chosen viewing site.
The amphitheatre of El Jem offers a monumental perspective on Roman history. Explore the heritage sites already introduced by Nomadstrek as you plan your discoveries.
Explore heritage ↗
Taking time for everyday practices and inhabited landscapes is also part of the journey. Maritime life in Kerkennah offers a perspective on the relationship between people and their environment.
Our approach to travel ↗The panorama of Kraten offers another perspective on the Kerkennah Islands and the Tunisian coastline. An inspiration to discuss with the team as your stay takes shape.
Kraten, Kerkennah Islands. A landscape to discover, separate from the viewing site still to be confirmed.
Discover destinations ↗
Tell us about your interests and the number of travellers. The Nomadstrek team can advise you on possibilities for a stay around 2 August 2027.
The program, viewing site, services and prices will be discussed with the team. This enquiry is not a booking.
You can also contact us ↗On 2 August 2027. Local times and the duration of totality depend on the coordinates of the viewing site and will be specified once it has been confirmed.
No. Only the part of the country inside the path of totality will experience a total eclipse. Outside that path, the Sun will not be completely covered.
The team will need to confirm a site inside the path of totality, considering its coordinates, access, horizon and logistics. Weather conditions remain a source of uncertainty.
Yes. You can discuss heritage, landscapes and local encounters with Nomadstrek for the days before or after the event. The ideas illustrated here are to be organised with the team.
Contact the team to find out about stay options and the information available for your project.
During partial phases, use solar viewing glasses compliant with ISO 12312-2. Optical equipment requires an appropriate solar filter at its front aperture. Equipment provision and astronomical guidance are not advertised as included; consult the safety recommendations.
During partial phases, use solar viewing glasses compliant with ISO 12312-2. Ordinary sunglasses are not suitable. Binoculars, telescopes and cameras require appropriate solar filters fitted to the front of the optics; eclipse glasses do not replace these filters. Consult observation recommendations before travelling.
