Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:50 on 7 December; the latest is 20:39 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 05:47 on 14 June to 08:29 on 5 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in İzmir different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:58, 58 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

From sunset to full civil darkness is 27 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 38.4°N accounts for the 3-minute difference.

The shallow approach angle at 38.4° stretches this evening's golden hour to 52 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Over a year the sunset point slides 61° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Sunset drifts 83 seconds earlier each day this month — 42 minutes from the first of October to the last.

Planning a sunset photo in İzmir

Arrive by 17:50. Golden hour opens at 18:05 and the sun is down by 18:41, 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.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:57 and runs to 19:07, the end of civil twilight and 26m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
