Longest and shortest day in Gaziantep
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 14h 42m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 9h 36m.
Between them the day length swings by 5h 5m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:13 on 6 December; the latest is 19:54 on 28 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 05:10 on 13 June to 07:44 on 6 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Gaziantep different
Sunset here is followed by about 26 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
Evening golden hour runs 51 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 37.1° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 5h 5m here — among the narrowest of the 112 cities tracked in Turkey.
Over a year the sunset point slides 60° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.
Across October the sunset moves 40 minutes earlier, averaging about 80 seconds a day.
At 842 m the horizon sits 1° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 5.1 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 10.1 minutes of extra daylight across the day.
Planning a sunset photo in Gaziantep
Arrive by 17:11. Golden hour opens at 17:26 and the sun is down by 18:01, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 262° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
