Cancún is located at 21.16°N, 86.85°W. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the America/Cancun timezone (EST). It does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so solar times shift gradually through the year without abrupt clock changes.
Solar noon — the moment the sun reaches its highest point in the sky — occurs when the sun crosses the local meridian. In Cancún this falls around 12:46 in mid-summer and 12:37 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
