What you will see
Sa Dec is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 18:28:47 local time, the Moon hides 13% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 17:55:06 and ends at 19:00:57, 1 h 6 min later.
At the peak the Sun is below the horizon (towards the west), so only part of the eclipse is visible here.
The Sun sets at 18:20:10 local time, before the eclipse ends. You miss the final stages.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 2,948 km south-west of Sa Dec.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is El Dibir, about 5,946 km west, where totality lasts 3 m 26 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.
