Galway is located at 53.27°N, 9.06°W. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the Europe/Dublin timezone (GMT). 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 Galway this falls around 13:35 in mid-summer and 12:26 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
