Auckland is located at 36.85°S, 174.76°E. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the Pacific/Auckland timezone (GMT+12). 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 Auckland this falls around 12:20 in mid-summer and 13:11 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
