Travelers planning to witness totality overseas should check passport and visa requirements, as the path of totality mostly goes through visa-free destinations for U.S. passport holders. Beaches in Spain, Greenland, and Iceland offer unobstructed views, and cruise lines like Princess Cruises and Holland America Line are planning special sailings for eclipse viewing.
