The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:27 on 6 December; the latest is 19:00 on 29 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 04:25 on 13 June to 06:51 on 7 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Kawasaki different

Sitting on the eastern side of its time zone puts solar noon at 11:32, a full 27 minutes before twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Sunset here is followed by about 25 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Evening golden hour runs 49 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 35.5° 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 WSW, June swings it 59° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

Across September the sunset moves 42 minutes earlier, averaging about 87 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Kawasaki

Arrive by 16:44. Golden hour opens at 16:59 and the sun is down by 17:32, 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 17:48 and runs to 17:58, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
