Arctic Eclipse Cruises
Highlights
- Savor a total solar eclipse along the path of totality amid pristine Arctic skies and minimal light pollution
- Path of totality intersects the coast of Northeast Greenland, making for scenic Arctic wilderness front-row seats
- Western coast of Iceland within the path of totality, including the Westfjords and the Snæfellsnes and Reykjanes peninsulas
- Point of maximum eclipse, with a duration of 2 minutes and 18 seconds, at 65°12′N 25°12′W, between the Westfjords and the Snæfellsnes Peninsula off Breiðafjörður Bay in western Iceland
- Once-in-a-lifetime experiences abound, from a total solar eclipse to world-renowned wildlife watching and remarkable cultural discovery
On August 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse—when the Moon, passing between Earth and Sun, fully covers the latter as seen from terra firma—will be visible from a broad swath of the Arctic, providing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness an almost indescribably profound and moving natural phenomena in a gloriously beautiful and remote setting.
You’ll have numerous 2026 eclipse cruises to choose from, with itineraries ranging from the offshore Arctic Ocean to Greenland—where the famed fjord system of Scoresby Sund will experience one minute and 46 seconds of totality—and Iceland, which won’t see another total solar eclipse for more than 150 years. These tours will position you for ideal viewing of totality, when you’ll be able to experience an Arctic tableau cast in the ethereal dim while marveling at the Sun’s disk blotted out by a black Moon rimmed with coronal prominences and solar flares.
