What time is it in Juan Diaz right now?
The time in Juan Diaz, Panama is 4:49 am, 04:49 on a 24 hour clock, on Thursday November 5, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the America/Panama rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.
Juan Diaz sits at 9.04 degrees north and 79.44 degrees west, inside the tropics, north of the equator and 1,005 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 75.0 degrees west, and the city itself is 4.4 degrees west of that line. Those 4.4 degrees are worth 17 minutes 46 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 12:01 pm rather than on the stroke of twelve.

Moon phase over Juan Diaz tonight
The moon is a waning crescent tonight, 25.8 days into its cycle and about 15% lit. The next full moon falls on November 24, 2026 at 9:53 am Panama time, and the next new moon on November 9, 2026 at 2:01 am. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Juan Diaz clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Juan Diaz
There is no clock change scheduled in America/Panama within the next 400 days, so Juan Diaz stays at UTC-5 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Juan Diaz an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.

The antipode of Juan Diaz
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Juan Diaz, Panama and you come out at 9.04 degrees south, 100.56 degrees east. That point is near Bengkulu, Indonesia. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Bengkulu, Indonesia, 612 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 4:49 pm on Thursday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 9.04 degrees north becomes 9.04 degrees south, and 79.44 degrees west becomes 100.56 degrees east. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Juan Diaz is one of the exceptions, with dry land on the far side. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC+7, roughly twelve hours from Juan Diaz, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Juan Diaz
Today the sun rises in Juan Diaz at 6:08 am and sets at 5:54 pm, giving 11 hours 46 minutes of daylight.

Sun and moon in Juan Diaz today
The sun is up in Juan Diaz for 11 hours 46 minutes today, from 6:08 am to 5:54 pm. The moon rises in Juan Diaz at 3:03 am and sets at 3:21 pm. The next phase is the new moon on November 9, 2026. It is 13% lit at the moment, a waning crescent, thinning by about 7.1 percentage points a day.
| Sun | Time in Juan Diaz |

| Nautical dawn | 5:21 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:46 am |

| Sunset | 5:54 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:16 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:41 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:06 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Juan Diaz | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:46 am to 5:55 am | 0h 08m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:55 am to 6:37 am | 0h 42m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:26 pm to 6:08 pm | 0h 42m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:08 pm to 6:16 pm | 0h 08m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Juan Diaz |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 3:03 am |
| Moonset | 3:21 pm |
| Phase | waning crescent, waning |
| Illumination | 13% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 26.0 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 386,000 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

Los Angeles and Singapore are 16 hours apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 2 of 5: from 12:00 am in Juan Diaz it is working hours in Delhi and Singapore, but outside them in Juan Diaz, Los Angeles and London. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Juan Diaz
Seven days from November 5, 2026, computed for Juan Diaz, Panama at 9.04 degrees north, 79.44 degrees west, on the clock of America/Panama. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Juan Diaz, Panama, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Juan Diaz
From Juan Diaz, Panama the qibla is 62.0 degrees on a true compass, which is east-northeast, or 28.0 degrees north of due east. The Kaaba is 12,574 km away, 7,813 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Juan Diaz, Panama to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Juan Diaz, Panama before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.

It reads America/Panama from the time zone database, so it stays right when Juan Diaz changes its clocks, and it shows EST to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
