The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 12h 24m of daylight.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:01 on 10 November; the latest is 18:37 on 18 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 06:05 on 25 October to 06:36 on 3 February.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Bandar Seri Begawan different

Light lingers for 21 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 3 minutes shorter than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 4.9°N buys you.

Between solstices the sunset walks 47° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

Sunset drifts 29 seconds earlier each day this month — 14 minutes from the first of September to the last.

Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 2 April and 11 September, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.

Sunset lands at close to the same time all year — the annual spread in day length is only 34 minutes, compared with about 8.8 hours at London's latitude.

Around a solstice the day length flattens out, and that is where the calendar is now: the shortest day is 21 December, in 3 months, and sunset moves a mere 6 minutes earlier in the coming fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Bandar Seri Begawan

Arrive by 17:32. Golden hour opens at 17:47 and the sun is down by 18:14, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 269° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:27 and runs to 18:35, the end of civil twilight and 20m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
