Sunrise today lands at 06:55 and sunset at 07:28 local time, giving 12h 33m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (14.74, -17.20) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rufisque Department.
Rufisque Department runs on Africa/Dakar, which puts the city UTC +0 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 Africa/Dakar is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Dakar keeps pointing at Dakar time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
