What you will see
Werota is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 13:40:10 local time, the Moon hides 73% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:15:59 and ends at 14:56:43, 2 h 41 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 73° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Werota.

Seeing totality

The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Jizan, about 761 km north-east, where totality lasts 3 m 06 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
