About the time in San Juan
The zone identifier America/Lima is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Lima keeps pointing at Lima time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
San Juan sits at latitude -13.48, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 43m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:00 and sunset at 05:44 local time, giving 11h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-13.48, -72.30) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Juan.
