I will be in St. Thomas in June. What time exactly does the sun set and when will it be pitch black?

Thanks

Nick - I found this in the FAQ section of the board in the visitor info section in the upper right:

During the summer months the sun rises around 5:44am and sets around 6:57pm. During the winter months the sun rises around 6:46am and sets around 5:49pm.

From when I was there (and I have always been there in the summer months), it seems to me to be pitch black around 8:00. I have some great photos of sunsets on the 7:00 ferry from STJ to Red Hook. By the time we arived back at STT, it was nearly pitch black.

Hello,

If you go to http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=933 you can pull up the sun rise and sun set time for a specific date.
