Is the 6 February 2027 solar eclipse visible from Guyana?

Solar eclipse · Saturday 6 February 2027

The verdict for Guyana

Barely in reach, and only from the far south: Aishalton (2%) sees a small bite out of the Sun.

From Georgetown and the coast the Moon covers less than 1% of the Sun, or none of it. The next solar eclipse from Guyana: 26 January 2028, a partial eclipse with 70% of the Sun covered at Georgetown.

Times shown in Guyana time (UTC-4, no daylight saving).

Eye safety

Never look straight at the Sun, at any moment of a partial eclipse, without eclipse glasses or a hand-held solar viewer made to the ISO 12312-2 standard. Sunglasses, smoked glass, exposed film and phone screens do not protect your eyes. Never look through binoculars, a telescope or a camera without a solar filter fitted to the front, even while wearing eclipse glasses. A pinhole projection is safe: stand with your back to the Sun and look at the image on a card, never through the hole. Supervise children.
