About the time in La Serena
La Serena sits at latitude -29.79, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 13m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 07:10 and sunset at 06:23 local time, giving 11h 13m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-29.79, -71.06) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in La Serena.
La Serena follows the civil time used across its region of Chile; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
