Local time in Abidjan (Africa/Abidjan), daylight saving time included, rounded to the minute, for an open horizon at sea level.

Earliest sunset, latest sunrise

The shortest day in Abidjan is December 21, but the earliest sunset comes on November 10, at 5:57 PM, and the latest sunrise on February 2, at 6:33 AM. This shift comes from the equation of time: around the solstices, solar noon drifts by up to half a minute a day on the clock, so sunrise and sunset do not move symmetrically.

Solar noon and time zone

Abidjan lies at 5.36° north and 4.01° west. Its standard time, UTC, is set on the 0° east meridian, so the sun reaches its highest point in Abidjan about 16 minutes later than on that meridian. Over the year, solar noon falls between 12:00 PM (November 2) and 12:30 PM (February 10) on the clock.

Daylight saving time

Abidjan does not change its clocks (UTC all year), so sunrise and sunset move only with the seasons: sunrise by 32 min and sunset by 37 min over the year.

Height of the sun and twilight

At solar noon the sun climbs to 89.9° above the horizon on April 3, almost straight overhead, and only 61.2° on December 21. Civil twilight, from first light to sunrise, lasts about 21 minutes at the March equinox and 23 minutes in late June. The day length changes fastest around March 27: 18 s more each day.

The sky gets fully dark every night of the year: even in midsummer, the sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon.

Close to the equator, the day length barely changes: only 37 min between the longest and shortest days. Sunrise and sunset still drift by 32 min over the year, mostly because of the equation of time.
