Gansbaai does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Johannesburg all year. How times are calculated

Gansbaai, the Sun and the clock

Gansbaai is in Western Cape and has about 16,000 people. The nearest larger city is Hermanus, 21 km to the north-northwest. Gansbaai lies 10.6° west of the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 43 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:43, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Gansbaai: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 79° above the horizon in December and only 32° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Gansbaai range from 9h 50m in June to 14h 28m in December, a difference of 4h 38m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Gansbaai is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then.

Maghrib time Gansbaai compared with nearby cities

Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Gansbaai, calculated with the same method.
