Complete Time Zone Guide for Senegal
SyncMyTime displays accurate time for Dakar and Senegalese cities. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0) is maintained year-round.
Time Zone History
Senegal adopted permanent GMT reflecting its Atlantic coastal position. The country has never observed daylight saving time, preferring year-round consistency. GMT facilitates coordination with West African neighbors and former colonial power France (during winter when France uses UTC+1). Senegal's stable democracy has maintained consistent timekeeping.
Culture & Daily Rhythm
Senegalese daily life blends West African traditions with Islamic and French influences. The workday typically runs 8 AM-5 PM. The five daily prayers structure schedules for the 95% Muslim population. Teranga (hospitality) culture means extended social gatherings. Attaya (tea ceremony) involves multiple rounds. Wrestling matches are major events. French remains official language alongside Wolof. Coastal areas are more cosmopolitan.
