Longest and shortest day in Mamoudzou
The longest day falls on 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 12h 52m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 11h 22m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 30m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:39 on 31 May; the latest is 18:32 on 23 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 05:22 on 20 November to 06:22 on 11 July.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Mamoudzou different
Light lingers for 21 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 3 minutes shorter than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 12.8°S buys you.
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.
Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 15 February and 27 October — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon. The next one is in 17 days.
Sitting in 2 months of the longest day (21 December) means the sun has almost stopped drifting — 12h 19m of daylight today, and only 2 minutes of movement in sunset over the next two weeks.
Planning a sunset photo in Mamoudzou
Arrive by 17:12. Golden hour opens at 17:27 and the sun is down by 17:55, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 263° 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 18:08 and runs to 18:17, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
