Year distribution of sunrise and sunset times in Palenque, Los Ríos - 2026
The following graph shows sunrise and sunset times in Palenque, Los Ríos for every day of the year.
Daylight Dawn & dusk (civil twilight) Night Solar noon
Earliest and latest sunrise and sunset in Palenque
In Palenque, the earliest sunrise of 2026 is on November 5 at 5:57 am, while the latest sunrise is on February 13 at 6:28 am. The earliest sunset is on October 30 at 6:07 pm, and the latest sunset is on February 7 at 6:38 pm.

Palenque Analemma
Due to Earth's tilted axis and slightly elliptical orbit, the Sun is never seen in the same position at noon in Palenque. Throughout the year, it slowly traces this figure-eight:
Move along the curve to read the Sun's altitude and azimuth for any day of the year in Palenque.
Over the year, the 12:00 Sun swings between just 64.6° above the horizon (around Jun 21) and 87.5° (around Sep 28) in Palenque. Sitting almost under the Sun's yearly path, Palenque sees the analemma lying nearly flat overhead, with the Sun passing practically through the zenith twice a year.
Detailed Analemma Chart
The technical chart below plots one dot per day, labels the first day of each month, marks the solstices, equinoxes, perihelion and aphelion, and draws the noon altitude of the equinoxes (90° minus your latitude) together with its ±23.4° seasonal limits.
Why does the figure look wider here than in the sky view above?
Both draw the same data, but with different conventions. The sky view uses the same scale on both axes, so it shows the analemma with its true proportions, as a camera would capture it: about 47° tall and only a few degrees wide. This chart, like most technical analemma diagrams, stretches each axis independently to fill the plot, expanding the narrow azimuth range several times so its day-to-day variation can actually be read. Also, azimuth is not sky distance: near the zenith, one degree of azimuth spans much less than one degree across the sky, which further widens the figure in this representation.
