What makes a good sunset in Milford Sound?
Milford Sound is one of the wettest places on Earth, which means genuinely clear sunsets are rare and worth chasing hard when the score is high. The fiord walls rise over 1,200 meters on either side, so light only hits the water for a narrow window. When it does, the reflections on the still fiord surface are extraordinary. Mitre Peak at 1,692 meters is the iconic foreground. Cloudy evenings still produce moody mist and waterfall shots, but a high GoldCast score means you'll see actual color in the sky.
What time is sunset in Milford Sound tonight?
