Sunrise, tides, and the day's conditions worth knowing for your spots, plus the occasional PATHR update. No spam.
On the water, the light runs the day. First light is when you can start to see the channel; the hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset is the soft golden light anglers and photographers wait for; and last light is your deadline to be back on the mooring. The times on this page are calculated for Mahukona’s exact position and follow the local clock, daylight saving included.
Daylight is not fixed. It swings with the season, and how far it swings depends on latitude. Mahukona runs from about 10h 55m at the shortest day to 13h 21m at the longest. Plan an early start against first light, line up the evening bite with the golden hour and sunset, and cross-check the Mahukona tide chart and marine forecast before you head out.

They are calculated to the minute for Mahukona's exact coordinates (20.187°, -155.903°) using the standard astronomical equations NOAA's own solar calculator uses, and they follow the local time zone including daylight saving. Times are for a flat sea horizon; hills or headlands can shift the real moment a little.
