Florida observes Daylight Saving Time
Clocks go forward an hour on the second Sunday in March and back on the first Sunday in November, so Florida is on Eastern Daylight Time in summer and Eastern Standard Time in winter.
Most of Florida is on Eastern Time. The western panhandle, west of the Apalachicola River, keeps Central Time — an hour behind Tallahassee.
