What you'll see in Valencia
Valencia sees totality later than any other Spanish mainland city on this list, with the Sun only 4.5° above the WNW horizon.
Because totality is brief, the "diamond ring" effects bookending it will be especially striking. Pick a viewpoint with a clear view to the west-northwest, away from buildings and hills.
⚠ Eye safety
Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses for the entire partial phase. The ONLY exception is 20:32:30–20:33:30 CEST, when the Sun is fully covered from Valencia.
