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 webcam. The Fletcher Cove Sunset runs nightly, weather permitting, from about two hours before sunset.

At Solana Beach, the sun sets at 7:47 PM today — about 13h 43m of daylight. Sunrise was 6:05 AM. Live water temperature, surf height, UV index, wind and tide for Solana Beach update at the top of the conditions page.
