Longest and shortest day in Santiago
The longest day falls on 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 14h 22m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 9h 55m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 26m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:41 on 11 June; the latest is 20:56 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 06:25 on 5 December to 07:56 on 4 April.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Santiago different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:29, a full 30 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 13:29.
It takes roughly 25 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Photographers get 48 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 57° 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 24 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 48 seconds a day.
Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 3 April 2027: sunset goes from 19:36 the evening before to 19:35 that evening.
Elevation matters at 556 m. The visible horizon drops 0.82°, pushing sunset 4 minutes later and sunrise the same amount earlier than a sea-level observer would see.
Planning a sunset photo in Santiago
Arrive by 19:03. Golden hour opens at 19:18 and the sun is down by 19:51, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
