Longest and shortest day in Puerto Williams
The longest day falls on 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 17h 21m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 7h 10m.
Between them the day length swings by 10h 10m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:07 on 17 June; the latest is 22:10 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 04:46 on 15 December to 08:57 on 25 June.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Puerto Williams different
Clock noon and solar noon are 32 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:32 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.
At 54.9°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.
Evening golden hour runs 75 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 54.9° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
Summer and winter days differ by 10h 10m here, more seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in Chile we track.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 88° round to NW. Tonight, WNW.
Sunset drifts 108 seconds later each day this month — 54 minutes from the first of August to the last.
On 6 September 2026 the local clock shifts forward an hour and sunset lands at 18:59 instead of 17:57. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
Of the 39 Chile cities tracked here, this one sees the earliest sunset today — 77 minutes apart from Punta Arenas at the other end of the country.
