Athens is located at 37.98°N, 23.73°E. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the Europe/Athens timezone (GMT+3). It observes Daylight Saving Time, so sunrise and sunset times shift by one hour in spring and autumn.
Solar noon — the moment the sun reaches its highest point in the sky — occurs when the sun crosses the local meridian. In Athens this falls around 13:24 in mid-summer and 12:15 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
