Sunrise and sunset in Western Sahara

(Times for El Aaiún)

The times of sunrise and sunset in Western Sahara are influenced by the country's moderate northern position in the hemisphere. Not as extreme as in the United States, but still noticeable. The days in summer are long and in winter short. With up to approximately 13:50 hours the longest days are in Juni. On the other hand the longest dark nights happen in winter (in the southern hemisphere it is the other way around). In Dezember a night in El Aaiún last almost 14 hours.

Who wants to look at the sunrise in these days, can take it easy. Late by 8:09 the sun rises in El Aaiún. The Sunset can currently be watched at about 19:58 Uhr in the early evening.
