Calculate estimated sunrise time, sunset time, day length, solar noon, golden hour, blue hour, daylight remaining, and night length from date, latitude, longitude, and time zone. Use this sunrise sunset calculator for gardening, photography, hiking, camping, farming, hunting, travel, and outdoor planning.
Daily sunrise / sunset:
The calculator estimates the sun’s declination, equation of time, solar noon, sunrise, and sunset for your date and location.
Golden hour / blue hour:
The calculator estimates morning and evening golden hour and blue hour windows around sunrise and sunset.
Daylight length:
The calculator subtracts sunrise from sunset to estimate daylight hours, night length, and percent of the day with daylight.
Daylight remaining:
Enter a current time to estimate whether it is daylight and how much daylight remains before sunset.
A sunrise sunset calculator helps plan outdoor tasks around daylight, golden hour, twilight, and the amount of usable light available.
It can be useful for gardening, photography, hiking, camping, farming, livestock checks, hunting, fishing, travel, outdoor events, solar planning, and nature observation.
Your result shows estimated sunrise, sunset, solar noon, day length, night length, golden hour, blue hour, twilight windows, daylight remaining, and percent of the day with sunlight. These are planning estimates and may vary from official astronomical tables.
Sunrise and sunset are estimated from the date, latitude, longitude, time zone, and the sun’s apparent position relative to the horizon.
Solar noon is the time when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky for that location and date.
Golden hour is the period shortly after sunrise and shortly before sunset when sunlight is lower, warmer, and softer.
Clouds, hills, trees, buildings, elevation, local terrain, and atmospheric conditions can make the visible sunrise or sunset differ from the calculated time.
