You can get similar plot for most UK cities here.
I once did a whole year's worth of tidal ranges in Deptford Creek. A bit like this one http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/coast_and_sea/tide_tables/2/112#tide-details
but much much longer. It was very pretty and very much like a throbbing sound wave as it got larger and smaller. I then tried to calculate what pitch the tidal frequency would represent and came up with somewhere between A and B flat. It may have been the most obsessive thing I've ever done.

I plotted a graph manually for sunrises and sunsets for a full year. The plot was underwhelming and didn't repay the effort put into its creation.

I'd have been gutted if I'd got a plot like @Piemaster's.

It's called an "analemma" pattern and is due to the Earth's elliptical orbit and tilted axis.
