Longest and shortest day in Tirana
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 15h 9m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 9h 11m.
Between them the day length swings by 5h 58m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:11 on 8 December; the latest is 20:18 on 27 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 05:06 on 14 June to 07:06 on 4 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 12m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tirana different
From sunset to full civil darkness is 29 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 41.3°N accounts for the 5-minute difference.
Evening golden hour runs 55 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 41.3° 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 64° round to WNW. Tonight, WNW.
By the end of August the sun will be setting 42 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 84 seconds a day.
Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 25 October 2026: sunset goes from 17:46 the evening before to 16:45 that evening.
Planning a sunset photo in Tirana
Arrive by 18:33. Golden hour opens at 18:48 and the sun is down by 19:25, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 285° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
