Sunrise / Sunset
The Sunrise / Sunset tool gives today's sunrise, sunset, golden hour, and twilight times for any location - essential for photographers, travellers, and outdoor planners.
Times that matter outdoors
Enter a place to see when the sun rises and sets, plus the golden hour (the warm, soft light just after sunrise and before sunset that photographers prize) and the twilight phases. It also shows the total day length, which shifts noticeably with the seasons and your latitude.
Who uses it
Photographers plan shoots around golden and blue hour; hikers and travellers time their return before dark; observers of religious practices track precise sun times; and gardeners and farmers follow daylight. Times are calculated from the location's coordinates and today's date.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the golden hour?
It is the period shortly after sunrise and before sunset when sunlight is soft, warm, and low - ideal for photography.
What is the difference between sunset and twilight?
Sunset is when the sun dips below the horizon; twilight is the fading light afterward, which lasts until the sky is fully dark.
Can I check any location?
Yes. Enter any place and the tool calculates its sun times from the coordinates and date.
Why does day length change through the year?
Earth's tilt changes how long the sun is above the horizon, so day length varies with the season and your latitude.
