About the time in Dacao
Clocks in Dacao stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +8 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in China.
Dacao follows the civil time used across its region of China; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:44 and sunset at 07:42 local time, giving 12h 58m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (27.55, 102.48) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Dacao.
