The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 14h 17m of daylight.

The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 10h 0m.

Between them the day length swings by 4h 16m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:42 on 3 December; the latest is 19:59 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 05:40 on 11 June to 06:05 on 1 November.

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

What makes sunsets in Tijuana different

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

Evening golden hour runs 47 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 32.5° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 4h 16m here — among the widest of the 146 cities tracked in Mexico.

Between solstices the sunset walks 56° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

By the end of September the sun will be setting 39 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 80 seconds a day.

The clocks go back on 1 November 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:58 to 16:57 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.

Planning a sunset photo in Tijuana

Arrive by 17:53. Golden hour opens at 18:08 and the sun is down by 18:40, 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 18:55 and runs to 19:05, the end of civil twilight and 24m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
