Longest and shortest day in Monterrey
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 13h 44m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 10h 31m.
Between them the day length swings by 3h 12m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:49 on 29 November; the latest is 19:36 on 2 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 05:49 on 9 June to 07:29 on 12 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Monterrey different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:43, a full 43 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.
Sunset here is followed by about 24 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
The shallow approach angle at 25.7° stretches this evening's golden hour to 45 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 3h 12m here — among the widest of the 146 cities tracked in Mexico.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 52° round to WNW. Tonight, WNW.
Across August the sunset moves 26 minutes earlier, averaging about 51 seconds a day.
At 560 m the horizon sits 0.82° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 3.7 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 7.4 minutes of extra daylight across the day.
Planning a sunset photo in Monterrey
Arrive by 18:21. Golden hour opens at 18:36 and the sun is down by 19:07, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 282° 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 19:21 and runs to 19:31, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
