- Totality window (UT)
- 08:45:06 → 08:49:57
- Maximum 08:47:31 UT. Computed for the city point — position on the centreline side gains seconds.
- Sun altitude at maximum
- 38.4°
- Computed. Above ~20° terrain rarely matters; this is a comfortable sky position.
- Trip effort — 3 / 5 how this is scored
- Visa: 1 — Morocco visa-free 90 days for EU/US/UK Flights: 3 — tiny local airport; effectively via Tangier Ground: 3 — mountain-backed coastal roads Infrastructure: 3 — modest; Martil beach strip nearby
Sky: Same Mediterranean-coast caveat as Tangier: the morning marine layer is the enemy; the climatology author calls this coast dicey.
Getting there: Tétouan (TTU); Tangier ~60 km. Good road from Tangier.
Staying: Modest city stock plus the Martil beach strip; many will base in Tangier instead. Chain booking calendars typically open about a year out, so August 2027 dates are now live at major brands; independents open later.
Visa: Visa-free 90 days for EU/US/UK and many others.
Verdict: Backup to Tangier rather than a first choice — same sky risk, thinner logistics.
