Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:39 on 2 November; the latest is 19:10 on 10 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 06:31 on 5 November to 07:02 on 13 February.

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

What makes sunsets in Yaren different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:54, a full 54 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Light lingers for 21 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 3 minutes shorter than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 0.6°S buys you.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 47° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

By the end of August the sun will be setting 6 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 11 seconds a day.

Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 20 March and 25 September, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high. The next one is in 4 weeks.

At 0.6° the seasons barely touch the clock: 4 minutes separate midsummer from midwinter, against roughly 8.8 hours in London.

The times barely move this week: the shortest day of the year falls on 21 June, 2 months ago, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 4 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Yaren

Arrive by 18:14. Golden hour opens at 18:29 and the sun is down by 18:57, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 280° 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 19:10 and runs to 19:18, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
