Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:32 on 18 November; the latest is 18:28 on 11 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 05:35 on 31 May to 06:25 on 26 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Phnom Penh different

At 11.6°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 21 minutes to arrive: 3 minutes shorter than today's 24-minute median.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 48° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 15 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 31 seconds a day.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 21 April and 23 August — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon.

The times barely move this week: the shortest day of the year falls on 21 December, in 2 months, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 7 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Phnom Penh

Arrive by 17:02. Golden hour opens at 17:17 and the sun is down by 17:45, 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 17:58 and runs to 18:06, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
