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
