About the time in Cayenne
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 06:40 local time, giving 12h 15m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (4.94, -52.33) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cayenne.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Cayenne day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 12:00–20:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Cayenne sits at latitude 4.94, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 15m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
