Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 06:01 local time, giving 12h 03m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-2.14, -74.13) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Carlos.
San Carlos runs on America/Lima, 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.
