Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:18 on 28 November; the latest is 18:57 on 3 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 05:19 on 8 June to 06:50 on 14 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Muscat different

Sunset here is followed by about 23 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Between solstices the sunset walks 51° 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.

Sunset drifts 51 seconds earlier each day this month — 26 minutes from the first of October to the last.

Today's earliest sunset in Oman happens here, 21 minutes earlier than in Şalālah.

Planning a sunset photo in Muscat

Arrive by 17:00. Golden hour opens at 17:15 and the sun is down by 17:45, 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 17:59 and runs to 18:07, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
