Estimate sunrise time, sunset time, solar noon, day length, daylight remaining, and twilight times from date, latitude, longitude, and time zone. Useful for weather planning, photography, gardening, travel, hiking, and outdoor work.
Date:
Select the date you want to estimate sunrise, sunset, daylight, and twilight for.
Latitude and longitude:
Enter your location coordinates. North latitude is positive, south is negative. East longitude is positive, west is negative.
Time zone:
Select your standard UTC offset and add daylight saving time when needed.
Twilight:
Choose civil, nautical, or astronomical twilight to estimate morning and evening twilight times.
A sunrise sunset calculator is useful for weather planning, photography, outdoor work, gardening, hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, travel planning, solar estimates, and checking how much daylight remains.
This calculator uses a simplified solar position estimate. Official sunrise and sunset times may vary slightly due to elevation, atmospheric refraction, terrain, and local horizon conditions.
Your result shows estimated sunrise, sunset, solar noon, day length, and daylight remaining for the selected date and location. It also includes twilight estimates based on the selected twilight type.
Sunrise and sunset can be estimated from the date, latitude, longitude, time zone, solar declination, equation of time, and solar hour angle.
They change because of Earth’s tilt, orbit around the sun, latitude, and the time of year.
Solar noon is the time when the sun is highest in the sky for that location on that date.
Civil twilight is the period when the sun is just below the horizon and there is still enough natural light for many outdoor activities.
