Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:06 on 13 December; the latest is 21:57 on 24 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 04:56 on 17 June to 08:40 on 30 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 16m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Dublin different

At 53.3°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 35 minutes to arrive: 11 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Evening golden hour runs 67 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 53.3° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 84° round to NW. Tonight, W.

Sunset drifts 2 minutes earlier each day this month — 70 minutes from the first of September to the last.

Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 25 October 2026: sunset goes from 18:09 the evening before to 17:07 that evening.

Planning a sunset photo in Dublin

Arrive by 18:13. Golden hour opens at 18:28 and the sun is down by 19:14, 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 19:35 and runs to 19:48, the end of civil twilight and 34m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
