Did You Know?
Antigua was the capital of Spanish Central America until the 1773 earthquake, after which the administration moved to what is now Guatemala City and left the ruins standing. That abandonment is why the baroque city survives.
The clock: Antigua keeps UTC−6. Its Semana Santa processions lay carpets of dyed sawdust across the streets, which the procession then walks over and destroys.
Antigua Guatemala lies at 90.7°W. Its time zone, UTC−6, is built around the 90°W meridian. The two very nearly coincide: solar noon — the moment the sun is highest — falls at about 12:03, which is as close to true solar time as a zone this wide can get. The zone holds UTC−6 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 12h 59m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 11h 16m. The swing between them is 1h 43m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Antigua Guatemala the sun comes up earliest on 3 June at 05:33, while the latest sunset waits until 10 July at 18:36. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Antigua Guatemala that civil twilight runs about 21 minutes at the equinox.
