Sunset time, countdown and the Sunset Score are computed live from Open-Meteo’s real cloud forecast at each day’s sunset hour. The in-page cam is an animated preview — tap “live cam” for the real Surfline SC Pier webcam. The San Clemente Pier Sunset runs nightly, weather permitting, from about two hours before sunset.
At San Clemente, the sun sets at 7:50 PM today — about 13h 44m of daylight. Sunrise was 6:05 AM. Live water temperature, surf height, UV index, wind and tide for San Clemente update at the top of the conditions page.
