    Time zone in Honolulu

    Honolulu is on Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HST, UTC-10) all year, with no daylight saving time. Its identifier in the international time zone database is Pacific/Honolulu: it is what your phone and computer use to show the right time there.

    Hawaii does not use daylight saving time. Honolulu stays on Hawaii Standard Time (UTC-10) all year, so it is 5 hours behind New York in winter and 6 hours behind in summer.

    Honolulu is 7,771 km from Washington, D.C., the capital.

    By the sun, noon in Honolulu falls at about 12:31 PM (on average over the year). The city lies at 157.86° west, and every degree of longitude shifts the sun by 4 minutes. The clock runs well ahead of the sun here, so mornings stay dark late and evenings stay light late. See the sunrise and sunset times in Honolulu.
