Da Nang gets 11h 59m of daylight today, from sunrise to sunset. Tomorrow will be 53 seconds shorter. Over the next seven days Da Nang loses 6 minutes 11 seconds of daylight.

That pace is not constant. In Da Nang the day length changes fastest around March, near the equinox, when it moves by about 55 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 Da Nang?

The earliest sunset of 2026 in Da Nang falls on 22 November at 17:12, 29 days before the December solstice, and the latest on 7 July at 18:23.

Sunrise runs on its own schedule: earliest on 4 June at 05:14, latest on 20 January at 06:18, 30 days after the December 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 Da Nang?

First light in Da Nang arrives 22 minutes before sunrise today, at 05:15. After sunset the light hangs on for another 22 minutes, until 17:57. That evening stretch is not the same all year in Da Nang: it runs from 21 minutes at its shortest, in September, to 24 minutes at its longest, in June. 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 Da Nang?

At midday on the June solstice the sun stands 82.6 degrees above the horizon in Da Nang. On the December solstice it climbs only 50.5 degrees. The midday sun stays high enough all year that noon shadows in Da Nang are always shorter than the object casting them, about 0.82 times their height at the lowest point of the year.

Twice a year, on 4 May and 8 August, the midday sun over Da Nang comes within half a degree of straight overhead, reaching 89.94 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.
