About the time in La Palma
La Palma sits at latitude 7.69, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 20m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
La Palma runs on America/Panama, which puts the city UTC −5 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
The zone identifier America/Panama is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Panama keeps pointing at Panama time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
