Nautical twilight is when the horizon can still be seen at sea; after astronomical dusk the sky is fully dark. Calculated for Dakar, Senegal (14.69° N, 17.44° W, GeoNames' point for the city) in Greenwich Mean Time. Times assume a level horizon at sea level; hills, buildings and weather can change what you see.
