On 12 August 2026, Ibiza witnessed one of the most extraordinary astronomical phenomena of recent decades: a total solar eclipse which coincided with sunset. The combination of the sky, the Mediterranean and the darkness of totality made the evening a unique experience, witnessed by thousands of people from different parts of the island.
An eclipse that transformed Ibiza into a unique setting
The solar eclipse in Ibiza was particularly spectacular as it coincided with the final hours of the day. As the Moon gradually obscured the Sun, the light began to change until totality was reached, creating a completely different atmosphere over the island for a few moments.
The phenomenon brought residents and visitors together on the beaches, viewpoints and various spots along the coast to watch the sky darken over the Mediterranean. Anticipation was particularly high in Sant Antoni, Sant Josep and other places with an unobstructed view of the horizon.
The eclipse was experienced at Dusk by Yamm
