Times For Sunrise And Sunset In Singapore

Times for sunrise and sunset in SingaporeSunrise today: 7:15 hSunset today: 19:22 h(Times for Singapore)

Sunrise and sunset in Singapore do not differ significantly throughout the year. The reason for this is the proximity to the equator. Thus, the sun swings north in the middle of the year and south at the turn of the year, without moving too far away. In countries like Canada or Norway, however, the difference is much more extreme.

With up to approximately 12:10 hours the longest days happen to be in June. In December a night in Singapore lasts almost 12 hours.

During these days, the sun in Singapore rises at 7:15. The Sunset can currently be watched at about 19:22 in the early evening.Back to overview: Singapore

Duration of the sunset

The distance from the equator and the path of the sun determines not only the time of sunrise and sunset. The farther a country is from the equator, the more oblique the sun's path is to the horizon, causing sunset to last for a different duration. Singapore lies on the 1st degree of northern latitude and thus very close to the equator. While a sunset in the northern USA or central Europe can take almost an hour, in Singapore, it lasts only an average of 24 minutes. Singapore is so close to the equator that there is no noticeable difference even between June and December.

The sun between the tropics

The capital Singapore lies almost exactly on the equator and therefore also between the tropics. The sun swings back and forth between them over the course of the year. At the solstice on June 21, it is perpendicular above the northern tropic, and on December 21 above the southern tropic. If a country like Singapore lies between these tropics, the sun crosses its latitude twice a year and then shines vertically from above. For Singapore, this is on March 24th and September 20th.

Unlike in countries that are far away from the equator, the angle of the sun is quite large here. The sun is much higher in the sky at midday and therefore shines with a high intensity. It has the smallest angle, i.e. the smallest distance from the horizon, at the winter solstice on December 22nd. Then, even at midday, it is only 65.3 degrees above the southern horizon. For comparison: in New York, the sun only reaches an angle of 73 degrees at the height of summer.
