Longest and shortest day in Barquisimeto
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 12h 42m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 11h 32m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 10m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:11 on 16 November; the latest is 19:03 on 12 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 06:15 on 29 May to 07:00 on 27 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Barquisimeto different
On standard time the sun peaks at 12:39, 39 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 21 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 10.1°N accounts for the 3-minute difference.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 48° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Sunset drifts 27 seconds earlier each day this month — 13 minutes from the first of August to the last.
On 16 April and 27 August the midday sun stands at the zenith, 133 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow. The next one is in 2 days.
Standing 606 m up buys you 3.5 extra minutes of evening sun: the higher you are, the further over the curve of the Earth you can see, by 0.85° here.
The times barely move this week: the longest day of the year falls on 21 June, 2 months ago, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 8 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.
