Longest and shortest day in Quetta
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 14h 5m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 3 months, with 10h 11m.
Between them the day length swings by 3h 53m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:31 on 3 December; the latest is 19:37 on 1 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 05:29 on 11 June to 07:29 on 10 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Quetta different
On standard time the sun peaks at 12:23, 23 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.
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 46 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 30.2° 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 55° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Across September the sunset moves 36 minutes earlier, averaging about 74 seconds a day.
At 1,683 m the horizon sits 1.42° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 6.6 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 13.1 minutes of extra daylight across the day.
Planning a sunset photo in Quetta
Arrive by 17:37. Golden hour opens at 17:52 and the sun is down by 18:24, 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 18:38 and runs to 18:47, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
