Madeira Beach golden hour & blue hour by season

Golden hour is the warm, low-sun light; blue hour is the cooler twilight that brackets it. These windows come from Madeira Beach’s true solar geometry — the sun’s altitude, not a fixed hour — so they stretch toward the solstices and run longer than the rule-of-thumb hour.

Why sunset time shifts in Madeira Beach

Sunset drifts through the year with Earth’s ~23.4° axial tilt — see the full daylight explainer.

In Madeira Beach, the longest day carries about 13h 54m of daylight and the shortest just 10h 23m — a swing of roughly 3h 31m between the June and December solstices. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider that gap; the pace also isn’t steady, moving fastest near the equinoxes and barely at all near the solstices. Every figure here is computed from the sun’s position for Madeira Beach’s exact coordinates, in local time.
