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. And this causes a different duration that a sunset takes. Port-of-Spain lies on the 11th degree of northern latitude and thus a good distance from the equator.While a sunset in the northern USA or central Europe can take almost an hour, in Trinidad and Tobago it only lasts an average of 23 minutes. Trinidad and Tobago is so close to the equator that there is no noticeable difference even between June and December.International cities for comparison
