Frequently asked questions

What time does the sun set in Nicosia?

Today the sun sets at 19:03 in Nicosia, Cyprus, after 12 hours and 39 minutes of daylight that began with sunrise at 06:24. Darkness does not fall at once: civil twilight lasts until 19:29, and until then you can still read outdoors without artificial light.

What time does the sun rise in Nicosia?

Today sunrise in Nicosia, Cyprus is at 06:24, and daylight lasts 12 hours and 39 minutes until sunset at 19:03. The day actually begins earlier: civil twilight starts at 05:59, when the sky brightens while the sun is still below the horizon. Solar noon, when the sun is at its highest, falls at 12:44. Sunrise is the moment the upper edge of the sun appears on the horizon, accounting for atmospheric refraction: the same definition used by astronomical observatories.

What is the difference between the three twilights?

The three twilights differ by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight reaches 6 degrees: in Nicosia it ends at 19:29 today, the hour when you can no longer read outdoors without artificial light. Nautical twilight extends to 12 degrees, today until 19:59: while it lasts, the sea horizon stays visible and sextant navigation works. Astronomical twilight ends at 18 degrees, today at 20:30: from then the sky is fully dark and even faint stars appear. In the morning the sequence runs in reverse, starting at 04:58.
