What you will see
Makū is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 14:05:22 local time, the Moon hides 52.8% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:54:21 and ends at 15:10:45, 2 h 16 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 61° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Makū.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 1,339 km south-west of Makū.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al ‘Aqīq, about 1,372 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 22 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.
