How prayer times are calculated in Aruba
Pages for Aruba use the Muslim World League method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. Times are shown in local time (UTC−4). In the capital Oranjestad, Fajr is around 4:57 AM and Maghrib 7:08 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 5:40 AM and Maghrib at 6:20 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 24 min to 12 h 52 min.
Our cities in Aruba stretch from Noord in the west to Santa Cruz in the east, and from Noord in the north to Santa Cruz in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in Santa Cruz about less than a minute before Noord, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also differs between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Oranjestad cannot replace that of your own city.
