Prayer times in Arcachon — common questions
What time is Fajr in Arcachon today?
Fajr in Arcachon begins at 04:52 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.
Which direction is the Qibla from Arcachon?
From Arcachon, the Qibla is 111.0° from true north — roughly ESE. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.
Which calculation method is used for Arcachon?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across France. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.
Do prayer times in Arcachon change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 6.8-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Arcachon, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
How far is Arcachon from Makkah?
Arcachon lies approximately 4542 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.
