Total Solar Eclipse 2028
About this event
On 22 July 2028, a total solar eclipse will traverse Australia, with many locations in the Northern Territory being in prime position to experience this rare astronomical phenomenon.
The Barkly Region, which sits within the "path of totality", will experience a peak window of 4 minutes and 57 seconds of complete solar obscuration. The path encompasses several accessible sites including Tennant Creek and Karlu Karlu / Devils Marbles.
Late July is the Northern Territory's dry season. Visitors can typically expect low humidity, stable air, and a strong likelihood of clear skies, key factors for eclipse success. Being inland, the Barkly is also less likely to be impacted by coastal weather.
These factors mean that the Barkly Region stands out as one of Australia's premier locations to witness the 2028 total solar eclipse, offering a rare combination of climatic reliability and expansive viewing conditions. The region provides both long duration and optimal timing, with the eclipse occurring high in the sky, between 12.45pm and 1pm, when atmospheric distortion is minimal.
