The night sky over Djerba
We measured the darkness of the sky over Djerba the way we rate every stargazing spot: Sky Score 57/100, about Bortle 4.5, from NASA Black Marble satellite radiance and a skyglow model calibrated on certified dark-sky sites. It describes the nights before and after the eclipse, not the eclipse itself.
In August, about 92% of nights here are clear (ERA5 climatology, 2015–2024, night hours).
Where to stay in Djerba
The path crosses some of Europe and North Africa's busiest August holiday coasts. For the 2024 US eclipse, rooms inside the path sold out months ahead at several times normal prices. A refundable booking made early costs nothing and protects you.
