At greatest eclipse, the 2026 solar eclipse near the Perseid peak is listed at 65.2°N, 25.2°W.
These coordinates identify the point where the eclipse reaches its greatest overall circumstances, not necessarily a famous city or the place with the longest locally visible totality. They lie in the Arctic region west of Iceland.
Coordinates are reported as latitude and longitude. The positive latitude places the point north of the Equator, while the western longitude places it west of the prime meridian.
The eclipse path then continues across parts of Greenland, Iceland, the Atlantic Ocean, northern Spain, and northeastern Portugal. The Perseid radiant, meanwhile, remains associated with the constellation Perseus and is a separate sky position.
