Longest and shortest day in Tórshavn
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 19h 45m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 5h 8m.
Between them the day length swings by 14h 36m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 14:58 on 17 December; the latest is 23:21 on 22 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 03:36 on 19 June to 09:52 on 26 December.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 24m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tórshavn different
From sunset to full civil darkness is 44 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 62°N accounts for the 20-minute difference.
Photographers get 89 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 2.2× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 116° round to NNW. Tonight, WSW.
Across October the sunset moves 154 minutes earlier, averaging about 5 minutes a day.
On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 16:42 instead of 17:45. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
Planning a sunset photo in Tórshavn
Arrive by 17:12. Golden hour opens at 17:27 and the sun is down by 18:29, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-southwest — the sun goes down at 257° 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 18:56 and runs to 19:13, the end of civil twilight and 44m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
