How the Sun moves through the year in Venice
Sunrise: Northeast (55°). Sunset: Northwest (306°).
Sunrise: East-Southeast (124°). Sunset: West-Southwest (237°).
These bearings are calculated for Venice's coordinates rather than using a generic east/west rule. The shift between the two solstices shows how far the sunrise and sunset points move along the local horizon over the year.
Local horizon context
Open eastern horizon across the lagoon gives a clear sunrise view
Elevated position over the Grand Canal catches early light reflections
Official solar times assume an astronomical horizon. Buildings, trees, hills or other obstructions described in the local notes can change when the Sun first or last becomes visible from a particular street or viewpoint.
What this city page is for
This is the Venice solar overview: today's sunrise, sunset, directions and total daylight in one place. Use the dedicated sunrise or sunset pages when you want mode-specific viewing guidance; use the live SunPoint map when you need the bearing from an exact location rather than the city centre.
