About the time in Santa Cruz
Around 158 people live in Santa Cruz, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Santa Cruz sits at latitude -11.87, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 46m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Clocks in Santa Cruz stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Peru.
