Longest and shortest day in Tirana
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 15h 9m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 2 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
On standard time the sun peaks at 11:27, 32 minutes before clock noon, because the city sits near the eastern edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 12:27.
From sunset to full civil darkness is 28 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 41.3°N accounts for the 4-minute difference.
Evening golden hour runs 54 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — 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, W.
By the end of October the sun will be setting 106 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 4 minutes 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 17:15. Golden hour opens at 17:30 and the sun is down by 18:08, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 262° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
