Sunsit shows you which spots in Berlin are sunny right now and when they will be.
Wondering if that cafe terrace is sunny at the moment? Trying to find the best bench in the park for a coffee date in two hours? Sunsit uses a digital elevation model that captures the height of every meter across Berlin — every building, every tree, every structure — and calculates real shadows for cafés, restaurants, Biergärten, lakes, parks, and playgrounds across all 12 districts. No guessing, no walking there to check. Just open the app and see.
