-- The sun's maximum southward excursion, at the December solstice,
is about 23.5° south of the equator.
-- At that time, it is (23.5° + 6°34') = 30°04' south of you.
-- So at solar noon, the sun is 30° 04' below your zenith, or 59° 56' above
your southern horizon.

When the Sun is directly over the Tropic of Cancer in June, the Sun is precisely on the horizon on the Antarctic Circle. South of that, there is no sunlight.
