What time is sunset in Campinas today?

The sun sets in Campinas at 18:07 (just after midnight) today, Thursday, 1 October 2026, in Campinas's own local time. The warm light starts well before that: evening golden hour opens at 17:37, giving 30 minutes of low golden light before the sun reaches the horizon. Sunset is not the end of the light either. Last light, the moment usable daylight ends at civil dusk, follows 23 minutes later at 18:30, and the sky is properly dark at 19:23, 1h 15m after sunset.

Tomorrow the sun sets at 18:07 in Campinas. To the minute, that is the same time as today. Over the coming week sunset moves 2 minutes 30 seconds later.

Is the day getting longer or shorter in Campinas right now?

Campinas gets 12h 18m of daylight today, from sunrise to sunset. Tomorrow will be 1 minute 19 seconds longer. Over the next seven days Campinas gains 9 minutes 13 seconds of daylight.

That pace is not constant. In Campinas the day length changes fastest around March, near the equinox, when it moves by about 1 minute 20 seconds per day, and it slows almost to a stop at the solstices in June and December. The word solstice means exactly that: the sun standing still.

When are the earliest and latest sunrise and sunset in Campinas?

The earliest sunset of 2026 in Campinas falls on 6 June at 17:30, 15 days before the June solstice, and the latest on 13 January at 18:59.

Sunrise runs on its own schedule: earliest on 28 November at 05:14, latest on 4 July at 06:49, 13 days after the June solstice. The four dates in the table below do not line up with the solstices, and they are not supposed to. Earth's orbit is slightly elliptical and its axis is tilted, so the sun runs a few minutes fast or slow against clock time through the year. That offset, the equation of time, is what pushes the earliest sunset ahead of the shortest day and the latest sunrise behind it.

How long does twilight last in Campinas?

First light in Campinas arrives 23 minutes before sunrise today, at 05:25. After sunset the light hangs on for another 23 minutes, until 18:30. That evening stretch is not the same all year in Campinas: it runs from 22 minutes at its shortest, in March, to 25 minutes at its longest, in December. The lower the angle at which the sun crosses the horizon, the longer twilight lasts, which is why dusk is a slow affair at high latitudes and abrupt near the equator.

How high does the sun get in Campinas?

At midday on the December solstice the sun stands 89.5 degrees above the horizon in Campinas. On the June solstice it climbs only 43.7 degrees. Even at that lowest point, a noon shadow in Campinas is only about 1.0 times the height of the object casting it.

Twice a year, on 10 December and 31 December, the midday sun over Campinas comes within half a degree of straight overhead, reaching 89.96 degrees at its highest. On those days an upright post casts almost no shadow at solar noon, which is why they are sometimes called zero shadow days. It can only happen between the tropics, where the sun passes directly over a place at all.
