Longest and shortest day in Podgorica
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 15h 17m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 9h 3m.
Between them the day length swings by 6h 13m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:09 on 9 December; the latest is 20:24 on 27 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 15 June to 07:12 on 3 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 12m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Podgorica different
At 42.4°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 29 minutes to arrive: 5 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
The shallow approach angle at 42.4° stretches this evening's golden hour to 56 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.
Between solstices the sunset walks 65° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is WNW.
Sunset drifts 88 seconds earlier each day this month — 44 minutes from the first of August to the last.
The clocks go back on 25 October 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:47 to 16:45 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.
Planning a sunset photo in Podgorica
Arrive by 18:36. Golden hour opens at 18:51 and the sun is down by 19:29, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 285° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
