How Are These Times Calculated?

Iftar time in Port Dickson is based on the astronomical sunset at 2.5°N, 101.8°E. This timing already accounts for atmospheric refraction, marking the moment the sun appears to dip below the horizon.

Sunset Calculation: Times are generated using precise astronomical calculations based on Port Dickson's latitude, longitude, elevation, and timezone.
Optional Buffers: Communities can apply +3, +5, or +15 minute safety margins if desired, though these are for personal or local preference rather than necessity.

Local Confirmation: While our Iftar times are accurate, we recommend checking with your local mosque for any community-specific adjustments or moon sighting variations.

How Iftar Times Work

Atmospheric Refraction

Earth's atmosphere bends light, causing the sun to appear slightly higher on the horizon than its actual position. This atmospheric refraction effect is already accounted for in our calculations, giving you the precise moment when the sun appears to cross below the horizon.

Port Dickson's Elevation

At 5m above sea level, Port Dickson's elevation affects when sunset occurs. Higher elevations see the sunset slightly later than lower areas. This elevation adjustment is included in all our calculations.

Astronomical Calculations

Iftar times are calculated using precise astronomical algorithms from NOAA, based on Port Dickson's exact location (2.52°N, 101.80°E), timezone (Asia/Kuala_Lumpur), and the current season to determine accurate sunset times throughout Ramadan.

Why does Iftar in Port Dickson differ from Seremban?

Compared to Seremban, Port Dickson has sunset 1 minute earlier than Seremban due to its more westerly position, and 112m lower elevation results in a slightly earlier sunset. The primary cause is the longitude difference between the cities — roughly 4 minutes of time difference per degree of longitude. Port Dickson is at latitude 2.52°, while Seremban is at latitude 2.71°. Even small differences in latitude and elevation create measurable shifts in when sunset occurs.
