About the time in Makin
The zone identifier Pacific/Tarawa is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Pacific/Tarawa keeps pointing at Tarawa time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:25 and sunset at 06:37 local time, giving 12h 13m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (3.39, 173.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Makin.
Clocks in Makin stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +12 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Kiribati.
