About the time in Cape Coast
Sunrise today lands at 06:00 and sunset at 06:15 local time, giving 12h 15m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (5.11, -1.25) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cape Coast.
Cape Coast follows the civil time used across its region of Ghana; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Cape Coast runs on Africa/Accra, which puts the city UTC +0 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.
