Local time in Manaus (America/Manaus), daylight saving time included, rounded to the minute, for an open horizon at sea level.
Earliest sunset, latest sunrise
The shortest day in Manaus is June 21, but the earliest sunset comes on October 26, at 5:50 PM, and the latest sunrise on February 17, at 6:08 AM. This shift comes from the equation of time: around the solstices, solar noon drifts by up to half a minute a day on the clock, so sunrise and sunset do not move symmetrically.
Solar noon and time zone
Manaus lies at 3.12° south and 60.02° west. Its standard time, UTC−4, is set on the 60° west meridian, almost exactly Manaus’s own longitude, so solar noon stays close to 12:00 in standard time. Over the year, solar noon falls between 11:44 AM (November 2) and 12:14 PM (February 10) on the clock.
Daylight saving time
Manaus does not change its clocks (UTC−4 all year), so sunrise and sunset move only with the seasons: sunrise by 31 min and sunset by 31 min over the year.
Height of the sun and twilight
At solar noon the sun climbs to 90.0° above the horizon on March 12, almost straight overhead, and only 63.4° on June 21. Civil twilight, from first light to sunrise, lasts about 21 minutes at the March equinox and 23 minutes in late June. The day length changes fastest around March 3: 11 s less each day.
The sky gets fully dark every night of the year: even in midsummer, the sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon.
Close to the equator, the day length barely changes: only 22 min between the longest and shortest days. Sunrise and sunset still drift by 31 min over the year, mostly because of the equation of time.
