The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:12 on 16 February; the latest is 20:42 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 06:15 on 12 June to 08:33 on 7 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Rabat different

Sunset here is followed by about 25 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Photographers get 49 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× 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 WSW, June swings it 57° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

Sunset drifts 73 seconds earlier each day this month — 36 minutes from the first of October to the last.

Planning a sunset photo in Rabat

Arrive by 17:11. Golden hour opens at 17:26 and the sun is down by 17:59, 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 18:15 and runs to 18:24, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
