About the time in Chinca
Sunrise today lands at 06:17 and sunset at 06:25 local time, giving 12h 08m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (0.77, -79.56) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Chinca.
Chinca follows the civil time used across its region of Ecuador; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
The zone identifier America/Guayaquil is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Guayaquil keeps pointing at Guayaquil time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
