Longest and shortest day in Chaozhou
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 13h 35m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 10h 40m.
Between them the day length swings by 2h 55m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:25 on 29 November; the latest is 19:04 on 3 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 05:26 on 8 June to 06:57 on 15 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Chaozhou different
It takes roughly 23 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 2h 55m here — among the narrowest of the 677 cities tracked in China.
Over a year the sunset point slides 51° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.
By the end of October the sun will be setting 26 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 51 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Chaozhou
Arrive by 17:07. Golden hour opens at 17:22 and the sun is down by 17:52, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 263° 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 18:06 and runs to 18:15, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
