Where on the horizon?

Sunrise and sunset compass bearings for Toronto — face these degrees, not “due east” or “due west.”

N E S W
Sunrise Sunset
Sunrise azimuth 110° ESE Face ESE at dawn
Sunset azimuth 250° WSW Face WSW at dusk

Azimuth is degrees clockwise from true north (0°). Today the disk clears the horizon at 110° ESE and drops at 250° WSW. Use that heading to pick a rail, pier, or hill that actually sees the Sun — then jump to where to stand.

Daylight Saving Time

They sit in different time zones, so the true solar delay is about 4h 8m even when local clock times look closer. Toronto sits at -79.3832°.

Toronto, Canada's largest city on Lake Ontario, offers striking CN Tower skyline silhouettes against Lake Ontario sunrises.
