A closer look at the sky over Kill Devil Hills
On August 8, 2026, the sun is above Kill Devil Hills for 13h 45m — rising at 6:15 AM toward 69° ENE, reaching its high point at 1:08 PM, and setting at 8:00 PM toward 290° WNW. Those two horizon moments anchor the day's best light.
That gives an evening golden hour of 7:25 PM – 8:19 PM (about 55 min) followed by the cooler 8:19 PM – 8:28 PM blue hour once the sun is down; early risers get the same in reverse, with blue hour at 5:47 AM – 5:56 AM and a morning golden hour of 5:56 AM – 6:51 AM. Civil twilight finally ends — full dusk — at 8:28 PM.
After dark, the moon over Kill Devil Hills is a waning crescent at 22% illumination, rising at 1:12 AM toward 55° NE. The city sits at 36.0°N, which brings a moderate seasonal change in day length: through August the days are drawing in and the point where it sets is sliding back toward the south, so every one of these times drifts gradually from day to day. The planner above recomputes all of them for whatever date you select.
