About Palaió Fáliro Time Zone
Palaió Fáliro uses the IANA time zone Europe/Athens, the standard time zone for Athens and much of Greece. The city runs on Eastern European Time (EET), UTC+2 during standard time and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST), UTC+3 during daylight saving time. Because Palaió Fáliro is part of the Athens urban area on the Saronic Gulf coast, its timekeeping matches the Greek capital exactly.
Greece observes daylight saving time under the European seasonal clock-change system. In 2026, clocks move forward on 29 March 2026 and move back on 25 October 2026; during the DST period, Palaió Fáliro is one hour ahead of its winter offset.

It is typically 1 hour ahead of Central European cities like Rome or Berlin in winter and summer, and 2 hours ahead of London during Greek winter but usually 2 hours ahead of London in summer as well, since both the UK and Greece shift clocks seasonally while maintaining the same relative gap.
