Times in Durban (SAST). Moonrise/moonset use the centre of the Moon's disc without refraction, as standard panchangs do; a moonrise after midnight is shown with its date. Hills, buildings or cloud can delay the actual sighting by a few minutes.

Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Durban today?

Sunday, April 19, 2026: moonrise 8:30 AM, moonset 6:45 PM (SAST).

Why can't I see the Moon exactly at moonrise time?

Moonrise is when the Moon's centre crosses a flat horizon. Buildings, trees, hills or haze near the horizon delay the first sighting, often by 10–20 minutes — for Karwa Chauth or Sankashti, wait until the Moon is clearly visible.
