Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:39 on 12 June; the latest is 20:02 on 6 January. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 05:24 on 6 December to 07:53 on 29 June.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Montevideo different

Clock noon and solar noon are 32 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:31 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.

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 49 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 34.9° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 58° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 26 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 51 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Montevideo

Arrive by 18:06. Golden hour opens at 18:21 and the sun is down by 18:55, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 261° 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 19:10 and runs to 19:20, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
