Edition: 2026

The Nautical Almanac contains astronomical information to support bridge crews in routine and emergency celestial navigation, as well as the calculation of daylight hours and mandatory gyro checks.

The Nautical Almanac includes:

  • Tabulations of the Sun, Moon, navigational planets and stars to help determine positions at sea when using a sextant
  • Times of sunrise, sunset, twilights, moonrise and moonset, phases of the Moon and eclipses of the Sun and Moon to help bridge crews plan observations
  • Interpolation and altitude correction tables, pole star tables and diagrams, and notes for the identification of stars and planets
  • Information on standard times for countries around the world
  • A concise set of sight reduction tables and sight reduction forms

About Our Admiralty Charts

Our Admiralty Charts are printed onto light chart paper that is supplied and watermarked by the UKHO. They are supplied on this paper to fulfil their primary purpose of being a navigation aid. If you wish to purchase a chart as an art print, please note that the chart is rolled to be posted and creases may occur. We recommend choosing our Courier Delivery shipping option at the checkout to reduce the risk of this occurring.
