Jeddah is a city in Saudi Arabia, in Mecca Region, with a population of about 4,697,000. It uses the Arabian Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Riyadh).
Jeddah does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+3 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.
Other cities on the same clock include Riyadh, Mecca.
Because Jeddah lies at 21.49° N, 39.19° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 13 h 27 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 10 h 50 min.
