Dunedin, New Zealand, is gearing up for its first total solar eclipse in over 850 years, with hotels already booking out two years in advance. The eclipse, set to occur at 4.17pm on July 22, 2028, will see the moon pass in front of the sun, creating a shadowy band across southern New Zealand.
This rare astronomical event will plunge areas within the band into darkness for nearly three minutes.
Dunedin last experienced a total solar eclipse in 1163, making this upcoming event particularly significant for both residents and visitors. The rarity of such eclipses adds to their allure, often leading to increased tourism and local engagement in related activities.
The anticipation surrounding the total solar eclipse in Dunedin underscores the growing interest in astronomical events and their potential to attract tourism. As hotels fill up quickly, it highlights the economic impact such phenomena can have on local communities.
