Longest and shortest day in Zagreb
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 15h 43m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 8h 39m.
Between them the day length swings by 7h 3m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:11 on 10 December; the latest is 20:50 on 26 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 05:05 on 16 June to 07:37 on 2 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 13m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Zagreb different
At 45.8°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 31 minutes to arrive: 7 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
Evening golden hour runs 59 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 45.8° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
Over a year the sunset point slides 70° along the horizon, from SW at the December solstice to NW in June. Today it is WNW.
Across August the sunset moves 49 minutes earlier, averaging about 98 seconds a day.
On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 16:53 instead of 17:55. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
Planning a sunset photo in Zagreb
Arrive by 18:52. Golden hour opens at 19:07 and the sun is down by 19:47, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 286° 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 20:06 and runs to 20:18, the end of civil twilight and 31m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
