Sunrise & Sunset in Cotonou During April

April in Cotonou brings rapidly lengthening days as the sun tracks higher across the sky. Morning twilight begins noticeably earlier, and evenings stretch well into what felt like nighttime just weeks ago. Day length is still increasing by two to three minutes daily. The stronger sun angle means warmer afternoons and more intense golden-hour light — ideal conditions for outdoor activities and photography.
