Timeline
15:50
Grab a salad to go. EAT GOOD PLACE is just a two-minute walk from the Sunshine 60 base and open until 21:00 on weekends, giving you plenty of time before the sun goes down.
16:05
Head inside the Sunshine City complex. The observatory at the top of Sunshine 60 is open until 21:00, so you have time to take your time finding the elevator and the viewing deck.
16:50
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light starts at 16:11, so you will catch the full transition from bright afternoon to the warm glow of sunset from the highest point in the area.
17:10
End the evening with a pint and some fish and chips at HUB. It is a 13-minute walk from Sunshine 60 and serves as a classic English pub stop to unwind after the view.
Local tip
The observatory hours are Mo-Su 11:00-21:00. Make sure you are inside the complex before 21:00 to avoid being locked out of the viewing area.
