Prayer times by region in Vanuatu
Our pages in Vanuatu are organised in 6 regions. Choose your region, then your city: each page has its own coordinates, so the times differ by a few minutes between cities, east to west and north to south.
How prayer times are calculated in Vanuatu
Times for Vanuatu 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+11). In the capital Port Vila, Fajr is about 3:46 AM and Maghrib 6:20 PM around 21 December, while around 21 June Fajr comes at 4:59 AM and Maghrib at 5:20 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 04 min to 13 h 12 min.
Our cities in Vanuatu stretch from Luganville in the west to Isangel in the east, and from Sola in the north to Isangel in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in Isangel about 8 minutes before Luganville, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also varies between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Port Vila is no substitute for that of your own city.
