Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:09 on 25 October; the latest is 18:40 on 3 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 05:52 on 10 November to 06:28 on 19 July.

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

What makes sunsets in Victoria different

From sunset to full civil darkness is 21 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 4.6°S accounts for the 3-minute difference.

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.

Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 9 March and 5 October, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high. The next one is in 6 weeks.

The longest and shortest days of the year differ by just 32 minutes here. In London the same gap is around 8.8 hours. That is about 16 times less seasonal variation.

Around a solstice the day length flattens out, and that is where the calendar is now: the shortest day is 21 June, 2 months ago, and sunset moves a mere 3 minutes earlier in the coming fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Victoria

Arrive by 17:37. Golden hour opens at 17:52 and the sun is down by 18:20, 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 18:33 and runs to 18:41, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
