10 Best Sunset Locations from Around The World
Truth be told, I have a slight obsession with sunsets. There’s something endlessly captivating about the way the sky transforms—soft pastels melting into deep oranges, golds, and purples, casting everything in a warm, fleeting glow. No two are ever quite the same, and I find myself drawn to them wherever I go, whether I’m by the sea, in the mountains, or simply watching from a rooftop in the city. They mark the quiet end of a day, a moment to pause, breathe, and take it all in. Over the past few years, I’ve made it a habit to photograph sunsets whenever they catch my eye—sometimes planned, sometimes spontaneous, always worth it. These are some of my favourite captures, each one tied to a memory, a place, or a feeling. I hope they bring you a little bit of the same peace and wonder they gave me.
