About the time in Benito
Sunrise today lands at 06:23 and sunset at 07:03 local time, giving 12h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (19.02, -70.15) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Benito.
Benito runs on America/Santo_Domingo, which puts the city UTC −4 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Benito follows the civil time used across its region of Dominican Republic; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
