About Carúpano Time Zone
Carúpano uses the IANA time zone America/Caracas, the standard time zone for much of Venezuela. Its current standard offset is UTC-4:00, meaning local time in Carúpano is four hours behind Coordinated Universal Time. This offset applies year-round, so the city does not shift forward or backward seasonally.
Carúpano does not observe daylight saving time. Venezuela currently stays on UTC-4 throughout the year, which makes scheduling simpler than in countries such as the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom, where offsets change in March and October or November. Because Carúpano remains fixed while other places move clocks seasonally, the time difference between Carúpano and cities like New York or London changes during the year.
Geographically, Carúpano is in Sucre state in northeastern Venezuela, near the Caribbean coast. Its time zone aligns with Caracas and other major Venezuelan cities, so domestic coordination is straightforward across the country. Compared with neighboring regional zones, Carúpano is typically 1 hour ahead of standard time in parts of the US East Coast during northern-hemisphere winter, but can match New York during US daylight saving time; it is also 4 hours behind London in UK winter and 5 hours behind London in UK summer.
