Greenland Solar Eclipse 2026
Aboard: Ocean Albatros
Venture to one of the world's most awe-inspiring destinations to experience one of nature’s most incredible phenomena on this truly unforgettable Arctic adventure…witnessing totality in wild East Greenland!
On August 12th 2026, a total solar eclipse will pass southwards through mountainous Northeast Greenland, and this is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to see it. Surrounded by indescribable landscapes, far away from civilisation, in the heart of Greenland’s staggering natural beauty.
Although the goal of your expedition will be witnessing the eclipse, that’s not all that Greenland will offer up to you. The rest of your itinerary will be an unforgettable showcase of all that makes this wild and remote region so special. Exploring along both the southeast and southwest coasts, you will marvel at majestic fjords and glaciers flowing from the snow-capped peaks of imposing mountains, sample the unique Greenlandic culture in picturesque towns and settlements, sail through the magnificent strait of Prins Christiansund, visit the ancient remains of Erik the Red's farmstead, explore around one of the world’s smallest capitals, and much more.
