Daylight in Essaouira
Essaouira sits at 31.51° north, so its day length swings by 4h 07m across the year. Today the city gets 11h 11m of daylight, 2m 00s shorter than yesterday. Solar noon — when the sun is highest, not when the clock reads twelve — depends on the city’s longitude within its time zone and the equation of time.
Sunrise (Shuruk) comes from the official Ministry of Habous source; sunset, solar noon and the twilight steps are computed astronomically from the city’s position.
