Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:10 on 12 December; the latest is 21:20 on 25 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 05:03 on 16 June to 08:06 on 1 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 14m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Saint Peter Port different

From sunset to full civil darkness is 32 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 49.5°N accounts for the 8-minute difference.

Evening golden hour runs 62 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 49.5° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Between solstices the sunset walks 75° across the horizon — SW in midwinter, NW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

Sunset drifts 2 minutes earlier each day this month — 62 minutes from the first of September to the last.

On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 17:00 instead of 18:02. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.

Planning a sunset photo in Saint Peter Port

Arrive by 18:02. Golden hour opens at 18:17 and the sun is down by 18:59, 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 19:19 and runs to 19:31, the end of civil twilight and 31m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
