Longest and shortest day in Monterrey

The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 13h 44m of daylight.

The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 10h 31m.

Between them the day length swings by 3h 12m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:49 on 29 November; the latest is 19:36 on 2 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 05:49 on 9 June to 07:29 on 12 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Monterrey different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:32, a full 33 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Sunset here is followed by about 23 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

The shallow approach angle at 25.7° stretches this evening's golden hour to 44 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 3h 12m here — among the widest of the 146 cities tracked in Mexico.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 52° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

Across September the sunset moves 32 minutes earlier, averaging about 65 seconds a day.

At 560 m the horizon sits 0.82° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 3.6 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 7.3 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Monterrey

Arrive by 17:48. Golden hour opens at 18:03 and the sun is down by 18:34, 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 18:48 and runs to 18:57, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
