Longest and shortest day in Adelaide
The longest day falls on 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 14h 30m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 9h 48m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 42m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:10 pm on 12 June; the latest is 8:33 pm on 7 January. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 6:48 am on 4 October to 6:30 am on 5 April.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Adelaide different
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.
Photographers get 49 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
Between solstices the sunset walks 58° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.
By the end of October the sun will be setting 85 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 3 minutes a day.
Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 4 April 2027: sunset goes from 7:08 pm the evening before to 6:06 pm that evening.
Planning a sunset photo in Adelaide
Arrive by 6:37 pm. Golden hour opens at 6:52 pm and the sun is down by 7:25 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 261° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
