Longest and shortest day in Khartoum

The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 13h 3m of daylight.

Between them the day length swings by 1h 50m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:16 on 22 November; the latest is 18:25 on 8 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 05:18 on 3 June to 06:20 on 21 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Khartoum different

Sitting on the eastern side of its time zone puts solar noon at 11:36, a full 23 minutes before twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Over a year the sunset point slides 49° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 18 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 37 seconds a day.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 3 May and 10 August — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon.

The times barely move this week: the shortest day of the year falls on 21 December, in 2 months, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 9 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Khartoum

Arrive by 16:49. Golden hour opens at 17:04 and the sun is down by 17:32, 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 17:45 and runs to 17:54, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
