The longest day of 2026 is 22 December, with 13h 12m of daylight. The shortest is 22 June, with 11h 3m. The swing between them is 2h 9m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Broome the sun comes up earliest on 25 November at 05:07, while the latest sunset waits until 19 January at 18:33. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
