Our Mission
Sunset Sunrise Today (sunsetsunrisetoday.com) delivers fast, clear, and precise solar times worldwide. Look up sunrise today, sunset today, day length, solar noon, golden hour, blue hour, and twilight windows for any location — without complicated astronomy software.
Whether you are planning a Dhaka sunrise shoot, checking London sunset for travel, or comparing day length across cities, our goal is to make global solar data simple and trustworthy.
What We Provide
Daily Solar Times
Sunrise, sunset, solar noon, and day/night length for countries and major cities.
Photography Windows
Golden hour and blue hour calculators with practical timing guidance for camera work.
Twilight Phases
Civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight based on standard solar depression angles.
Live Location Tools
Search any place or detect your GPS location to view local solar times instantly.
Astronomical Methodology
Our calculations use NOAA solar positioning methods and Jean Meeus astronomical algorithms. We compute solar declination, equation of time, atmospheric refraction correction, and zenith angles to estimate the moment the Sun’s upper limb crosses the horizon.
What this means in practice
- Sunrise and sunset use the standard 90.833° solar zenith definition (including refraction).
- Solar noon marks the Sun’s highest altitude for the day at your longitude.
- Golden hour and blue hour windows follow common photography solar-altitude ranges.
- Times are shown in each location’s local civil timezone.
Accuracy Notes
Calculated times are highly precise for open horizons. Real-world visibility can still differ slightly because of terrain, mountains, buildings, weather, and local atmospheric conditions. Use our data as a reliable planning baseline, then adjust for your exact viewing spot.
Who We Serve
- Landscape and travel photographers planning golden hour and blue hour shoots
- Travelers checking sunrise today / sunset today before trips
- Students and educators exploring solar geometry and twilight science
- Anyone who wants clear daily sun times by country or city
