Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:13 on 8 December; the latest is 20:14 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 05:09 on 14 June to 08:03 on 4 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Baku different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:27, a full 27 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

At 40.4°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 27 minutes to arrive: 3 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Evening golden hour runs 53 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 40.4° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 5h 46m, one of the narrowest swings of any Azerbaijan city on the site.

Over a year the sunset point slides 63° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Across October the sunset moves 44 minutes earlier, averaging about 89 seconds a day.

Of the 6 Azerbaijan cities tracked here, this one sees the earliest sunset today — 14 minutes apart from Ganja at the other end of the country.

Planning a sunset photo in Baku

Arrive by 17:17. Golden hour opens at 17:32 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.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:25 and runs to 18:35, the end of civil twilight and 27m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
