Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:11 on 10 December; the latest is 20:50 on 26 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 05:05 on 16 June to 07:37 on 2 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 13m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Zagreb different

At 45.8°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 30 minutes to arrive: 6 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Evening golden hour runs 57 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 45.8° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Over a year the sunset point slides 70° along the horizon, from SW at the December solstice to NW in June. Today it is W.

Across September the sunset moves 56 minutes earlier, averaging about 116 seconds a day.

On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 16:53 instead of 17:55. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.

Planning a sunset photo in Zagreb

Arrive by 17:51. Golden hour opens at 18:06 and the sun is down by 18:46, 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 19:04 and runs to 19:15, the end of civil twilight and 29m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
