About the sun in Bendigo
In Bendigo, the longest day of 2026 is 22 December, with 14h 41m of daylight, and the shortest is 21 June, with 9h 38m: a difference of 5 hours 3 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 3 October (5:57 AM) and the latest sunset on 5 January (8:45 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year. Bendigo lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 76.7° above the horizon, on 22 December.
