Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:34 on 12 November; the latest is 18:14 on 16 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 05:39 on 24 May to 06:12 on 1 February.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Lomé different

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 6.1°N buys you.

Between solstices the sunset walks 47° 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.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 11 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 22 seconds a day.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 5 April and 7 September — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon.

Sunset lands at close to the same time all year — the annual spread in day length is only 43 minutes, compared with about 8.8 hours at London's latitude.

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 5 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Lomé

Arrive by 16:59. Golden hour opens at 17:14 and the sun is down by 17:42, 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 17:55 and runs to 18:03, the end of civil twilight and 20m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
