About sunrise, sunset & moon times in Cairo
Knowing exactly when the sun rises and sets - and how the light changes before and after - helps with everything from planning a hike to catching the best photo. This page combines the official sunrise and sunset times with astronomically calculated twilight and golden-hour windows.
Civil, nautical and astronomical twilight mark how far the sun sits below the horizon, from a bright sky good for outdoor activity down to fully dark skies for stargazing. The golden hour gives warm, soft light; the blue hour, the cool glow just before sunrise and after sunset.
