Greenland Solar Eclipse 2026 on the Ocean Albatros

Embark on a 12-day expedition cruise to witness the 2026 total solar eclipse in the wilds of East Greenland. On August 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse will pass southwards through mountainous Northeast Greenland. The Ocean Albatros will anchor near the Blosseville Coast, far away from any inhabited location, providing a perfect vantage point for 2 minutes and 17 seconds of eclipse totality. This expedition cruise from East to West Greenland combines the wonder of a total solar eclipse with Greenland's breathtaking landscapes, from the glaciers of the Watkins Mountains and the colourful town of Tasiilaq to the stunning fjords of Skjoldungen. Navigate Prins Christiansund, uncover Norse history at Erik the Red's farmstead, and experience Nuuk's mix of tradition and modernity. First-class dining and expert lectures on astronomy, zoology, geology, and Inuit culture will enhance this unique voyage to witness totality on Earth's largest island.
