Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 1:42 pm on 18 November; the latest is 1:42 am on 2 August. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 20m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Utqiagvik different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 13:29, a full 89 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 2:29 pm.
At 71.3°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 98 minutes to arrive: 74 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
Evening golden hour runs 150 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 71.3° 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 24h 0m here — among the widest of the 358 cities tracked in United States.
Sunset is shifting 5 minutes earlier a day right now — 74 minutes over the coming two weeks.
On 1 November 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 4:03 pm instead of 5:09 pm. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
Of the 358 United States cities tracked here, this one sees the latest sunset today — 239 minutes apart from Honolulu at the other end of the country.
Stargazers get no full darkness at the moment — the sun stops -8° below the horizon near 2:29 am, leaving the sky in permanent deep twilight.
Planning a sunset photo in Utqiagvik
Arrive by 9:02 pm. Golden hour opens at 9:17 pm and the sun is down by 10:52 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face northwest — the sun goes down at 307° 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 11:47 pm and runs to 12:31 am, the end of civil twilight and 1h 38m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
