Longest and shortest day in Monrovia

The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 12h 29m of daylight.

The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 11h 45m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:22 on 12 November; the latest is 19:02 on 16 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 06:26 on 24 May to 07:01 on 1 February.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Monrovia different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:34, a full 35 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

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 6.3°N buys you.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 47° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

By the end of September the sun will be setting 15 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 31 seconds a day.

Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 6 April and 7 September, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.

At 6.3° the seasons barely touch the clock: 44 minutes separate midsummer from midwinter, against roughly 8.8 hours in London.

The times barely move this week: the shortest day of the year falls on 21 December, in 3 months, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 7 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Monrovia

Arrive by 17:54. Golden hour opens at 18:09 and the sun is down by 18:37, 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 18:49 and runs to 18:58, the end of civil twilight and 20m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
