About the sun in Perth

In Perth, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 17h 43m of daylight, and the shortest is 21 December, with 6h 51m: a difference of 10 hours 52 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 18 June (04:23) and the latest sunset on 24 June (22:08). 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. Perth lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 57.0° above the horizon, on 21 June. Around midsummer, from 3 May to 10 August, the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so the night sky never gets fully dark.
