Tools · Golden hour for any destination, any date
Sunrise & sunset times
The times are computed on your device from the destination’s coordinates with a standard solar algorithm, accurate to a couple of minutes. Golden hour is shown as the hour before sunset and after sunrise.
This tool needs JavaScript. Every figure it uses is also written in the destination guides.
How it works
- Pick a destination and a date.
- Read sunrise, sunset, day length and golden hour in local time.
- Compare with your own time zone for calls home at sunset.
Everything is computed on your device. Climate figures are typical averages, prices are estimates, and nothing here replaces the official source for your trip.
