About the time in Santa Cruz
The zone identifier Asia/Manila is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Manila keeps pointing at Manila time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:36 and sunset at 06:05 local time, giving 12h 29m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (14.15, 122.87) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santa Cruz.
Santa Cruz runs on Asia/Manila, which puts the city UTC +8 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.
