Longest and shortest day in Tromsø
The longest day falls on 19 May 2026, 4 months ago, with 24h 0m of daylight.
The shortest is 1 January 2026, 9 months ago, with no sunrise at all.
Between them the day length swings by 24h 0m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 11:42 on 27 November; the latest is 00:28 on 17 May. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 01:05 on 26 July to 11:20 on 27 November.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 33m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tromsø different
Clock noon and solar noon are 24 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 11:35 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 12:35.
At 69.6°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 60 minutes to arrive: 36 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
Photographers get 117 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 2.9× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
Summer and winter days differ by 24h 0m here, more seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in Norway we track.
By the end of September the sun will be setting 133 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 5 minutes a day.
Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 25 October 2026: sunset goes from 16:21 the evening before to 15:17 that evening.
Planning a sunset photo in Tromsø
Arrive by 16:54. Golden hour opens at 17:09 and the sun is down by 18:29, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 268° 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 19:06 and runs to 19:29, the end of civil twilight and 59m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
