Arizona Desert Sunsets

Phoenix is renowned for its spectacular desert sunsets. The Valley of the Sun lives up to its name with over 300 sunny days per year. The unique Sonoran Desert landscape, including saguaro cacti silhouettes against vibrant orange and pink skies, creates some of the most photographed sunsets in the American Southwest.

Note: Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so sunrise and sunset times remain consistent relative to Mountain Standard Time year-round.
