Sunrise today lands at 06:24 and sunset at 07:10 local time, giving 12h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (21.46, -71.14) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cockburn Town.
Around 3,720 people live in Cockburn Town, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Cockburn Town sits at latitude 21.46, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 46m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
