About the sun in Prestatyn

In Prestatyn, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 17h 00m of daylight, and the shortest is 21 December, with 7h 30m: a difference of 9 hours 30 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 17 June (04:45) and the latest sunset on 24 June (21:46). 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. Prestatyn lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 60.1° above the horizon, on 21 June. Around midsummer, from 15 May to 29 July, the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so the night sky never gets fully dark.
