Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:13 on 6 December; the latest is 19:54 on 28 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 05:10 on 13 June to 07:44 on 6 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Gaziantep different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:21, a full 22 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Sunset here is followed by about 26 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Evening golden hour runs 50 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 37.1° 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 5h 5m here — among the narrowest of the 112 cities tracked in Turkey.

Over a year the sunset point slides 60° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Across September the sunset moves 44 minutes earlier, averaging about 91 seconds a day.

At 842 m the horizon sits 1° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 5 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 10.1 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Gaziantep

Arrive by 17:32. Golden hour opens at 17:47 and the sun is down by 18:21, 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 18:37 and runs to 18:47, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
