Honolulu is a city in the United States, in Hawaii, with a population of about 350,964. It uses the Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Pacific/Honolulu).
Honolulu does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC−10 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.
Because Honolulu lies at 21.31° N, 157.86° W, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 13 h 26 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 10 h 50 min.
