Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 15:10 on 16 December; the latest is 22:43 on 23 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 03:53 on 19 June to 09:19 on 27 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 21m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Oslo different

Light lingers for 47 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 23 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 59.9°N buys you.

Evening golden hour runs 85 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 59.9° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 12h 56m, one of the narrowest swings of any Norway city on the site.

Over a year the sunset point slides 105° along the horizon, from SW at the December solstice to NW in June. Today it is WNW.

By the end of August the sun will be setting 83 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 3 minutes a day.

The clocks go back on 25 October 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:43 to 16:40 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.

Planning a sunset photo in Oslo

Arrive by 19:29. Golden hour opens at 19:44 and the sun is down by 20:41, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 293° 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 21:09 and runs to 21:28, the end of civil twilight and 46m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.

Golden hour in Oslo — times, duration and the best months Morning and evening windows, the next seven days, and how much golden light each month gives you.
