Longest and shortest day in Tangier
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 14h 35m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 9h 43m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 51m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:05 on 16 February; the latest is 20:43 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 06:06 on 13 June to 08:33 on 6 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tangier different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:25, a full 25 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 13:25.
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.
Photographers get 50 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× the 41 minutes available at the equator on the same date.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 4h 51m here — among the widest of the 41 cities tracked in Morocco.
Over a year the sunset point slides 59° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.
Sunset drifts 71 seconds earlier each day this month — 35 minutes from the first of August to the last.
On 20 September 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 18:23 instead of 19:24. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
