Longest and shortest day in Kawasaki
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 14h 33m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 9h 45m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 48m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:27 on 6 December; the latest is 19:00 on 29 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 04:25 on 13 June to 06:51 on 7 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Kawasaki different
Sitting on the eastern side of its time zone puts solar noon at 11:28, a full 32 minutes before twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.
Sunset here is followed by about 26 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
Evening golden hour runs 50 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 35.5° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 59° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Across October the sunset moves 38 minutes earlier, averaging about 76 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Kawasaki
Arrive by 16:24. Golden hour opens at 16:39 and the sun is down by 17:13, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 262° 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 17:28 and runs to 17:38, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
