Between them the day length swings by 3h 52m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:31 on 10 June; the latest is 19:30 on 9 January. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 05:16 on 3 December to 07:21 on 1 July.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Porto Alegre different
It takes roughly 24 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Photographers get 46 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 3h 52m here — among the widest of the 399 cities tracked in Brazil.
Over a year the sunset point slides 55° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.
Across September the sunset moves 16 minutes later, averaging about 33 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Porto Alegre
Arrive by 17:36. Golden hour opens at 17:51 and the sun is down by 18:23, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 268° 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 18:38 and runs to 18:47, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
