Longest and shortest day in Belo Horizonte
The longest day falls on 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 13h 20m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 10h 55m.
Between them the day length swings by 2h 24m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:23 on 5 June; the latest is 18:41 on 16 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 05:07 on 26 November to 06:31 on 6 July.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Belo Horizonte different
Sunset here is followed by about 22 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 50° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
By the end of October the sun will be setting 10 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 21 seconds a day.
Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 21 January and 21 November — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon. The next one is in 6 weeks.
Standing 888 m up buys you 4.4 extra minutes of evening sun: the higher you are, the further over the curve of the Earth you can see, by 1.03° here.
Planning a sunset photo in Belo Horizonte
Arrive by 17:12. Golden hour opens at 17:27 and the sun is down by 17:56, 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 18:09 and runs to 18:18, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
