Northern Spain offered some of the best views, as crowds watched the sky fall into darkness and reacted with cheers.
In London, which was outside the path of totality, about 90 percent of the Sun was obscured.
Hundreds gathered on Primrose Hill to watch the eclipse and take part in the festivities despite not experiencing totality.
In Iceland, cloudy and rainy weather disrupted viewing for some spectators hoping for a clearer spectacle.
The eclipse highlighted how, despite being predictable to the second, the phenomenon continues to captivate people around the world.
