What time is it in Bermuda right now? 🇧🇲
It is 3:18 pm in Hamilton right now, Friday, November 6, 2026. Bermuda runs on AST at UTC-4. Every reading on this page is computed from the IANA time zone database at the moment you loaded it, and the clocks above and below tick on from there.
Time in Bermuda now
Bermuda keeps a single time zone, Atlantic/Bermuda, so there is one answer to the question and it is the same in every town: 3:18 pm. The offset is UTC-4, and it is the standard one at the moment.
The offset from UTC in Hamilton is UTC-4, which is 4 hours behind Coordinated Universal Time. Nine in the morning in Hamilton is 1:00 pm UTC.
Bermuda time zone in full
Each row is a zone identifier from the IANA database, its reading at this instant, its offset from UTC and whether it is currently on standard or summer time. All of them agree today, which is the usual case for Bermuda.
| Time zone | Time now | UTC offset | Abbreviation | Daylight saving |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Atlantic/Bermuda | 3:18 pm | UTC-4 | AST | on standard time now |
Does Bermuda have daylight saving time?
Bermuda does observe daylight saving, in every zone it has. The next change is on March 14, 2027, when the clocks go forward and UTC-4 becomes UTC-3. Until then the offset here is UTC-4.
Because the clocks move, the gap between Bermuda and anywhere that does not move its own is not a constant. It shifts by an hour twice a year, and a difference memorised in one season is wrong in the other. That is the single most common source of a missed call into Bermuda.

Daylight hours in Hamilton today
In Hamilton the sun rose at 6:40 am today and sets at 5:25 pm, giving 10 hours 44 minutes of daylight. The capital is losing 1 minute 37 seconds of daylight a day at the moment, and the sun stands highest at 12:03 pm.
Solar noon in Hamilton is 12:03 pm, which is 3 minutes after clock noon. That gap is the capital sitting at 64.78 degrees west while its clock is set to Atlantic/Bermuda, plus the equation of time, which today runs 16.4 minutes ahead of mean time, plus an hour of daylight saving for part of the year.
Moon phase over Hamilton tonight
The moon is waning crescent tonight, 27.1 days into the current lunation, with roughly 6 percent of the disc lit. The next full moon falls on November 24, 2026 as Bermuda reads the date, at 10:53 am local. The moon phase page has the full cycle.
Cities in Bermuda
This site does not yet carry a city page inside Bermuda, so the readings here are worked out for Hamilton and for each zone directly. The zone table above is the authoritative answer for anywhere in the country, because a zone applies to every settlement inside it regardless of whether we list the settlement.
Every IANA time zone in Bermuda
These are the identifiers a computer uses. A program that stores Atlantic/Bermuda rather than UTC-4 keeps working through every future rule change, which is the whole reason the database is keyed this way.

Information about Bermuda
Bermuda sits in North America, carries the ISO country code BM and a population of about 64,000. Its capital Hamilton is at 32.29 degrees north, 64.78 degrees west, which is the coordinate every sunrise and solar noon on this page is computed from.
Upcoming dates in Bermuda
Read on Bermuda's own clock, so the day counts below start from November 6 and not from a UTC date. The list is the internationally observed calendar plus the dates common across North America, along with this country's own clock changes and the next solstices and equinoxes. National days set by a country's own statute are not included, because this site carries no statute table and a guessed one would be worse than an honest gap.
| Date | Day | What falls on it | Days away |

Sun and moon in Hamilton today
The sun is up in Hamilton for 10 hours 44 minutes today, from 6:40 am to 5:25 pm. The moon rises in Hamilton at 4:04 am and sets at 3:42 pm. The next phase is the new moon on November 9, 2026. It is 7% lit at the moment, a waning crescent, thinning by about 5.5 percentage points a day.
| Sun | Time in Hamilton |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 5:17 am |
| Nautical dawn | 5:46 am |
| Civil dawn | 6:15 am |
| Sunrise | 6:40 am |
| Solar noon | 12:03 pm |
| Sunset | 5:25 pm |
| Civil dusk | 5:50 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:19 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 6:48 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 Hamilton | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 6:15 am to 6:25 am | 0h 10m |
| Morning golden hour | 6:25 am to 7:15 am | 0h 50m |
| Evening golden hour | 4:50 pm to 5:40 pm | 0h 50m |
| Evening blue hour | 5:40 pm to 5:50 pm | 0h 10m |
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 Hamilton |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 4:04 am |
| Moonset | 3:42 pm |
| Phase | waning crescent, waning |
| Illumination | 7% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 27.0 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 389,300 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.

No hour on Friday, November 6, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Los Angeles and Delhi are 13 hours 30 minutes apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 3 of 5: from 10:00 am in Bermuda it is working hours in Bermuda, New York and London, but outside them in Los Angeles and Delhi. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Hamilton
Seven days from November 6, 2026, computed for Hamilton at 32.29 degrees north, 64.78 degrees west, on the clock of Atlantic/Bermuda. 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.
| Date | Fajr | Sunrise | Dhuhr | Asr | Maghrib | Isha |

Dhuhr is solar noon at Hamilton, 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 Hamilton
From Hamilton the qibla is 64.3 degrees on a true compass, which is east-northeast, or 25.7 degrees north of due east. The Kaaba is 10,029 km away, 6,232 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Hamilton to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram. That reads as a surprise on a flat map, where Mecca sits well to the southeast. A flat map is not the Earth. The shortest path from Hamilton to Mecca is a great circle that runs northeast over the Atlantic and Europe, and the qibla is the bearing of that path where you stand.
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 Hamilton 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.
