About Catia La Mar Time Zone
Catia La Mar uses the America/Caracas IANA time zone, which currently runs on UTC-4 year-round. Venezuela does not observe daylight saving time, so the local time in Catia La Mar stays stable throughout the year, which makes scheduling easier than in countries where clocks shift in March and October or November.
Catia La Mar is located in La Guaira state on Venezuela’s central Caribbean coast, immediately west of Caracas and close to the country’s main international air gateway, Simón Bolívar International Airport at Maiquetía. Because the city is tied closely to airport operations, coastal commerce, and travel flows into the capital region, accurate time coordination matters for flight pickups, hotel check-ins, customs handling, and business communication with Caracas-based organizations.
Compared with neighboring and commonly connected time zones, Catia La Mar stays aligned with some regions only part of the year. It is the same time as New York during U.S. daylight saving time, but 1 hour ahead of New York during U.S. standard time. It is typically 4 hours behind London during UK summer time and 5 hours behind London during UK winter time, so seasonal changes in the US and Europe can alter meeting overlap even though Catia La Mar itself never changes clocks.
