Convert time from Dededo Village
Dededo Village, in northern Guam, is the most populous village on the island and home to a large US military-affiliated population. The entire island of Guam runs on Chamorro Standard Time, UTC+10, year-round, under the IANA identifier Pacific/Guam. No daylight saving has been observed on Guam since 1954.
Guam’s timezone history has a geopolitical dimension. Before World War II, the island used UTC+10. During the Japanese occupation from 1941 to 1944, clocks were shifted to align with Tokyo time (UTC+9). After US liberation in 1944, Guam reverted to UTC+10, and the island has run on that offset since, though the underlying political designation shifted as the island moved between different US territorial classifications.
Military hours and tropical consistency
At 13 degrees north, Guam has minimal daylight variation: sunrise runs from about 5:50am to 6:45am, sunset from 6pm to 6:55pm. Year-round consistency is both geographically apt and practically convenient for a US territory whose daily schedules must coordinate with military commands across the Pacific. Dededo’s shopping centers and fast food strips operate on a rhythm set as much by military base hours as by local tradition.
