Longest and shortest day in Dammam
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 13h 47m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 10h 28m.
Between them the day length swings by 3h 19m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:46 on 30 November; the latest is 18:36 on 2 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 04:46 on 9 June to 06:29 on 12 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Dammam different
Sitting on the eastern side of its time zone puts solar noon at 11:26, a full 33 minutes before twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.
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.
The shallow approach angle at 26.4° stretches this evening's golden hour to 45 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 53° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Across October the sunset moves 28 minutes earlier, averaging about 57 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Dammam
Arrive by 16:30. Golden hour opens at 16:45 and the sun is down by 17:16, 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 17:31 and runs to 17:39, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
