About this clock
Kailua does not change its clocks
Kailua stays on Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time all year and does not move its clocks. Its offset from UTC never changes, so its relationship to the rest of the country shifts twice a year instead.
Kailua sits at 21.40°N, 157.74°W. For sunrise and sunset there — which do depend on exactly where it is, unlike the clock — see sunrise and sunset in Kailua.
Clock time against sun time
The clock says the same thing everywhere in Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time, but the sun does not. Over Kailua it is highest at 12:15 pm today — 15 minutes after clock noon.
At 157.7°W, Kailua sits 31 minutes of solar time west of Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time’s 150° meridian, so on standard time the sun peaks 31 minutes after noon.
