if you're in the islands now - what time is it getting dark? i'm in maine and lights need to go on about 4:45. yeesh!

Sunset time varies slightly from island to island but this time of year it's around 5:30PM give or take 5 or 10 minutes. In summer the sun sets between 6:30PM and 6:45PM.

Depends on the timezone and latitude too.

Cayman is on EST, not AST, so sunset right now around 6:05pm, can be as late as 7:30pm in midsummer (nowhere near as much variation as northern climes).

Oh, my family is from Lewis in the Western Isles of Scotland... mid summer the golf club has a special match that tees off... at midnight !

hi virg-tavel i do believe that this is you. you are good at all this travel stuff. Ive become addicted to this travel talk. I'm trying to ask all the questions for our cruise.

You can find sunrise/sunset tables for most locations at these websites:
