Why Seattle's Sunrise & Sunset Matters

Seattle sits at 47.61°N latitude — further north than any other major US city in the contiguous states except along the Canadian border — and its sun cycle is extreme: daylight stretches to 15h 59m around the June solstice, when sunset holds off until about 9:11 PM, then collapses to just 8h 25m by December, when the sun sets around 4:21 PM. That is a swing of more than seven and a half hours across the year.

The long summer evenings are a defining part of Seattle life, with twilight lingering well past 9 PM over Puget Sound. Winter is the trade-off: low sun angles, frequent cloud cover off the Pacific, and afternoons that end before the workday does. When the skies do clear at sundown — especially in spring and autumn — the sun drops behind the Olympic Mountains across the water, one of the great urban sunset views in North America.

FAQ — Seattle Sunrise & Sunset

What time is sunset in Seattle during summer?

At the June solstice Seattle's sunset is around 9:11 PM PDT, the latest of the year, and civil twilight keeps the sky bright until nearly 10 PM. Through most of June and July, sunset stays after 9 PM.

How early does the sun set in Seattle in winter?

Around the December solstice, sunset in Seattle falls to about 4:21 PM PST, with sunrise not until about 7:56 AM. That gives the city only about 8h 25m of daylight on its shortest days.

Where is the best sunset spot in Seattle?

Golden Gardens Park and Alki Beach face west across Puget Sound toward the Olympic Mountains and are the classic choices. Kerry Park on Queen Anne gives the postcard view of the skyline at dusk, and the ferry to Bainbridge Island puts you on the water at golden hour.

Why does Seattle have such long summer days?

At 47.6°N, Seattle is far enough north that the sun's path stays shallow and long in summer. The result is nearly 16 hours of daylight at the solstice — over seven hours more than the December minimum.

Does cloud cover affect Seattle sunsets?

Often. Marine air off the Pacific can hide the sun well before the official sunset time, especially from late autumn through early spring. The times on this page are the astronomical times for a clear horizon; the clearest sunset viewing usually comes in summer and early autumn.
