The rarest of eclipses is the hybrid (annular-total) solar eclipse, occuring roughly once a decade, with the last over this continent on 4th March 0881 CE.

As it shifts from annular to total, a dazzling effect known as Bailey's Beads will briefly be visible as the Sun shines through the lunar mountains that pockmark the Moon's rim.

 

On the morning of 20th April 2023, Western Australia's Exmouth Peninsula will darken with the eclipse, totally exposing the Sun's corona for just 62 seconds.  The hybrid solar eclipse starts its parth of totality in the remote Southern Ocean as an annular eclipse, becoming a total eclipse through the centre of its journey before returning to annularity.  During Exmouth's "Ningaloo eclipse" the Moon's shadow will travel at 2,700 kilometres per hour ona path 41 kilometres wide, completing its journey in the north-eastern Pacific.
