About sunrise and sunset times in Athens

Sunrise and sunset times in Athens are computed astronomically from latitude 37.98° and longitude 23.73°, shown in EET (UTC+2) local time using the standard NOAA solar position algorithm.

The day length on 8/29/2026 in Athens is 13h 9m. This varies throughout the year — typically longest around the summer solstice (June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere, December 21 in the Southern) and shortest around the winter solstice.

Sunrise and sunset are defined as the moment the upper edge of the sun touches the horizon, accounting for atmospheric refraction. "Civil twilight" begins ~30 minutes before sunrise and ends ~30 minutes after sunset.
