About the time in La Ceiba
La Ceiba runs on America/Santo_Domingo, which puts the city UTC −4 from Coordinated Universal Time right now.

La Ceiba sits at latitude 18.87, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 38m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
