Nampula lies at 39.3°E. Its time zone, UTC+2, is built around the 30°E meridian. The 9.3° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 37 minutes behind the sun: solar noon arrives at about 11:23 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+2 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 December, with 13h 1m of daylight. The shortest is 22 June, with 11h 14m. The swing between them is 1h 48m. 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 Nampula the sun comes up earliest on 22 November at 04:43, while the latest sunset waits until 22 January at 18:00.

The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Nampula that civil twilight runs about 21 minutes at the equinox.
