Longest and shortest day in Ushuaia
The longest day falls on 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 17h 19m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 7h 12m.
Between them the day length swings by 10h 7m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:10 on 17 June; the latest is 22:12 on 28 December. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 04:50 on 15 December to 09:59 on 25 June.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Ushuaia different
Clock noon and solar noon are 95 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 13:35 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.
At 54.8°S the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 37 minutes to arrive: 13 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
The shallow approach angle at 54.8° stretches this evening's golden hour to 74 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 10h 7m here — among the widest of the 50 cities tracked in Argentina.
Over a year the sunset point slides 87° along the horizon, from SW at the December solstice to NW in June. Today it is WNW.
By the end of August the sun will be setting 54 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 107 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Ushuaia
Arrive by 17:33. Golden hour opens at 17:48 and the sun is down by 18:40, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 287° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
