Sunrise and Sunset Times in Florida

Sunrise and Sunset in Florida

The 173 Florida cities listed here span 6.2° of latitude, from Key West in the south (24.6°N) to Crestview in the north (30.7°N). On the June solstice that puts about 14h 8m of daylight over Crestview against 13h 40m over Key West — a 29m difference inside one state. In December the gap reverses, and the southern cities are the ones holding more light.

The median Florida city swings 3h 31m between the solstices against a national median of 5h 16m, so Florida has a 1h 45m gentler year of daylight than a typical American city.

Seasons bite hardest in Crestview, where daylight swings 3h 59m between the solstices, and least in Key West at 3h 3m. The table above lists both figures for every city, so you can see where any town falls between those two extremes.

Florida spans more than one time zone (Central Time and Eastern Time), so two cities here can be on different clocks despite similar longitudes. Longitude decides how a city's clock lines up with its Sun: Tallahassee sits furthest west inside its zone, which puts mean solar noon about 37 minutes after clock noon and gives it the state's latest-running evenings for its longitude.

Each city page carries that city's full profile: today's sunrise and sunset on a live tracker, a twelve-month table of times, the dates of the year's earliest and latest sunsets, the Sun's midday height by season, a golden-hour calendar, clear-sky solar-energy figures, and where the city ranks against the rest of the country.
