It is in darkness for 4 months in the winter. The rest of the time, it is light.
When it's winter in the Southern Hemisphere it's summer in the northern hemisphere. Therefore the North geographic pole is tilted towards the sun and the South geographic pole is tilted away from the sun.
During the southern Hemisphere winter, the earth's north pole 'leans' toward the sun, while its south pole 'leans' away from the sun.

When the South Pole is tilted away from the sun, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
The South Pole faces the sun during the summer season for the southern hemisphere.
It is Winter in the Southern Hemisphere
No, when the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun, it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere and winter in the Northern Hemisphere. The tilt of the Earth's axis causes the seasons to be opposite in the two hemispheres.
There is only one axis and it is always tilted. The part of the axis we call the 'north' pole is tilted toward the sun in the northern summer, and the 'south' pole is tilted toward the sun during the southern summer. That said, the earth itself is a little closer to the sun during the southern summer/northern winter.
Winter. The Earth has an axis, tilted at about 23.5° from the perpendicular to Earth's orbit. When the Earth's north pole is tilted towards the Sun, the northern hemisphere is in summer while the southern hemisphere is in winter. That's the main time when the Sun doesn't set at the north pole. When the Earth's north pole is tilted away from the Sun the southern hemisphere is in summer while the northern hemisphere is in winter.
The north pole is never pointed directly at the sun ever. Doing so would eradicate the presence of the seasons; it would always be hot in the northern area and always cold in the southern parts.
One revolution of Saturn around the Sun lasts for 29.7 years. For half of its orbit, Saturnâ??s southern pole faces the Sun, while its northern pole faces the Sun for the other half.
Summer in the southern hemisphere -- when the South Pole is tilted toward the the Sun, it's winter in the northern hemisphere -- including the state of Florida.
