Time & prayer in Latakia
Local time in Latakia falls within the Asia/Damascus zone. The clock and date at the top of this page update live to this timezone, so the readings stay accurate wherever you are.
Sitting at a latitude of about 35.5° in the northern hemisphere, Latakia's day length varies clearly between the long days of summer and the shorter days of winter. That is why its sunrise, sunset and day-length figures change from month to month, and why prayer times here follow the position of the sun rather than a fixed clock.
The prayer times shown for Latakia are calculated using the Egyptian General Authority of Survey. The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn.
