Blosseville Coast

Albatros Expeditions' 13-day Greenland Cruise Is the Best Way to See the 2026 Total Solar Eclipse

"I appreciate that for the Aug. 12, 2026 total solar eclipse the company has chosen a specific landing site on the Blosseville Coast in East Greenland to maximize the viewing experience: the spot is as close to the eclipse center line as possible, offers easy Zodiac access, has views unobstructed by mountains to the southwest, and is likely to have clear skies. Around noon local time the ship will drop anchor and the expedition team will scout the area so everyone on board has the best vantage point to witness the two minutes and 17 seconds of totality, which starts at 5:37 p.m." - Rachel Chang Rachel Chang Rachel Chang is a travel and pop culture journalist who contributes to Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, Lonely Planet, and more.
