What time is it in Jersey right now? 🇯🇪

It is 12:19 pm in Saint Helier right now, Friday, September 25, 2026. Jersey runs on UTC+1. Every reading on this page is computed from the IANA time zone database at the moment you loaded it, and the clocks above and below tick on from there.

Time in Jersey now

Jersey keeps a single time zone, Europe/Jersey, so there is one answer to the question and it is the same in every town: 12:19 pm. The offset is UTC+1, and it is the summer one at the moment.

The offset from UTC in Saint Helier is UTC+1, which is 1 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time. Nine in the morning in Saint Helier is 8:00 am UTC.

Jersey time zone in full

Each row is a zone identifier from the IANA database, its reading at this instant, its offset from UTC and whether it is currently on standard or summer time. All of them agree today, which is the usual case for Jersey.

Does Jersey have daylight saving time?

Jersey does observe daylight saving, in every zone it has. The next change is on October 25, 2026, when the clocks go back and UTC+1 becomes UTC+0. Until then the offset here is UTC+1.

Because the clocks move, the gap between Jersey and anywhere that does not move its own is not a constant. It shifts by an hour twice a year, and a difference memorised in one season is wrong in the other. That is the single most common source of a missed call into Jersey.

Time difference between Saint Helier and major cities

Worked out at this instant rather than from a stored table, so daylight saving on either side is already in it.

Best time to call Jersey

A nine to five working day in Saint Helier against a nine to five day elsewhere. The overlap column is the stretch when both desks are open, given on each side's own clock.

Daylight hours in Saint Helier today

In Saint Helier the sun rose at 6:59 am today and sets at 7:00 pm, giving 12 hours 1 minute of daylight. The capital is losing 3 minutes 36 seconds of daylight a day at the moment, and the sun stands highest at 1:00 pm.

Solar noon in Saint Helier is 1:00 pm, which is 60 minutes after clock noon. That gap is the capital sitting at 2.11 degrees west while its clock is set to Europe/Jersey, plus the equation of time, which today runs 8.3 minutes ahead of mean time, plus an hour of daylight saving for part of the year.

Moon phase over Saint Helier tonight

The moon is full moon tonight, 14.3 days into the current lunation, with roughly 100 percent of the disc lit. The next full moon falls on September 26, 2026 as Jersey reads the date, at 5:48 pm local. The moon phase page has the full cycle.

Cities in Jersey

This site does not yet carry a city page inside Jersey, so the readings here are worked out for Saint Helier and for each zone directly. The zone table above is the authoritative answer for anywhere in the country, because a zone applies to every settlement inside it regardless of whether we list the settlement.

Every IANA time zone in Jersey

These are the identifiers a computer uses. A program that stores Europe/Jersey rather than UTC+1 keeps working through every future rule change, which is the whole reason the database is keyed this way.

The converter pages below take UTC+1 against the zones people most often measure it from. Each one carries a full conversion table rather than a single answer.

Information about Jersey

Jersey sits in Europe, carries the ISO country code JE and a population of about 111,000. Its capital Saint Helier is at 49.19 degrees north, 2.11 degrees west, which is the coordinate every sunrise and solar noon on this page is computed from.

Upcoming dates in Jersey

Read on Jersey's own clock, so the day counts below start from September 25 and not from a UTC date. The list is the internationally observed calendar plus the dates common across Europe, along with this country's own clock changes and the next solstices and equinoxes. National days set by a country's own statute are not included, because this site carries no statute table and a guessed one would be worse than an honest gap.

Sun and moon in Saint Helier today

The sun is up in Saint Helier for 12 hours 1 minute today, from 6:59 am to 7:00 pm. The moon sets in Saint Helier at 5:24 am and comes up again at 6:23 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 26, 2026. It is 98% lit at the moment, a full moon, filling out by about 2.8 percentage points a day.

Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.

Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.

Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

Prayer times in Saint Helier

Seven days from September 25, 2026, computed for Saint Helier at 49.19 degrees north, 2.11 degrees west, on the clock of Europe/Jersey. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Saint Helier, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.

Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.

Qibla direction from Saint Helier

From Saint Helier the qibla is 114.6 degrees on a true compass, which is east-southeast, or 24.6 degrees south of due east. The Kaaba is 4,803 km away, 2,984 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.

That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Saint Helier to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.

The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Saint Helier before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.
