The Best Sunset Captions for Your Golden Hour PicsDesign by Yoora Kim - Getty Images

Mother Nature is an artist. Every days she paints the sky in shades of pink and orange as the sun goes down to bid us all goodnight. And yes, even though we see it most days, it never gets old, and we can't help but take a pic every time (raise your hand if you have a 'sunset' photo album 🙋♀️). If you've got all those pics sitting in your phone, may as well share them with your followers. Who doesn't love to see a gorgeous sunset? Or maybe those golden hour selfies are more your forte (don't worry, we're guilty too). Below are 75 of the best cute and funny sunset quotes, captions, and song lyrics for you to use on your next Instagram post.
