Longest and shortest day in Kuala Lumpur

The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 12h 18m of daylight.

The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 11h 56m.

Between them the day length swings by 21m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:56 on 8 November; the latest is 19:28 on 17 February. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 06:56 on 29 October to 07:27 on 6 February.

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

What makes sunsets in Kuala Lumpur different

On standard time the sun peaks at 13:00, 60 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

At 3.1°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.

Between solstices the sunset walks 47° 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 W.

Across October the sunset moves 9 minutes earlier, averaging about 17 seconds a day.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 29 March and 15 September — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon.

Sunset lands at close to the same time all year — the annual spread in day length is only 22 minutes, compared with about 8.8 hours at London's latitude.

Around a solstice the day length flattens out, and that is where the calendar is now: the shortest day is 21 December, in 2 months, and sunset moves a mere 4 minutes earlier in the coming fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Kuala Lumpur

Arrive by 18:19. Golden hour opens at 18:34 and the sun is down by 19:02, 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 19:14 and runs to 19:23, the end of civil twilight and 20m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
