MCToon is hosting a meetup the week of February 23-27, 2026 in Pensacola Beach, FL.

The meetup will be on the first day that has a forecast for a clear sky during sunset. Hopefully Monday. If there i no day with a clear forecast the meetup will happen on Friday regardless.

The primary goal is to record the size of the sun as it sets. This will be done using a solar filter. The location is selected to have a direct view to the sun as it sets over the Gulf of America.

There is a public pier that has a great view to the west. This is the preferred location.
Pensacola Beach Pier

However, if it's windy it might be sub optimal. The beach immediately west of the pier is the fall back location.

After sunset we will head to "The Dock" for dinner provided it's warm. The Dock

If it's too cold we will enjoy dinner at Crabs Seafood Crabs Seafood

The day will be announced here as will the restaurant.
