Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:57 on 10 June; the latest is 19:51 on 10 January. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 06:23 on 4 October to 06:00 on 5 April.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Kingston different

Clock noon and solar noon are 25 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 11:35 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 12:35.

It takes roughly 24 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Photographers get 46 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

Between solstices the sunset walks 54° 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 79 minutes later, averaging about 3 minutes a day.

Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 4 April 2027: sunset goes from 18:43 the evening before to 17:42 that evening.

Planning a sunset photo in Kingston

Arrive by 18:07. Golden hour opens at 18:22 and the sun is down by 18:54, 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 19:08 and runs to 19:18, the end of civil twilight and 24m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
