Longest and shortest day in Tegucigalpa
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 12h 57m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 11h 17m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 39m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:17 on 20 November; the latest is 18:21 on 9 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 05:19 on 1 June to 06:17 on 22 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tegucigalpa 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 14.1°N buys you.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 1h 39m here — among the narrowest of the 12 cities tracked in Honduras.
Between solstices the sunset walks 48° 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.
Across September the sunset moves 21 minutes earlier, averaging about 44 seconds a day.
On 28 April and 15 August the midday sun stands at the zenith, 109 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow.
Elevation matters at 944 m. The visible horizon drops 1.06°, pushing sunset 4.4 minutes later and sunrise the same amount earlier than a sea-level observer would see.
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 10 minutes earlier in the coming fortnight.
Planning a sunset photo in Tegucigalpa
Arrive by 16:59. Golden hour opens at 17:14 and the sun is down by 17:42, 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 17:55 and runs to 18:04, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
