At 5.1° latitude, Cape Coast is close to the equator, so prayer times barely move. In 2026, Maghrib stays between 17:47 (October 30) and 18:23 (July 7), a spread of only 0 h 36 min over the whole year, and Fajr between 04:36 and 05:10.

Cape Coast does not change its clocks in 2026: prayer times drift from day to day without any jump.

In Cape Coast, daylight lasts 12 h 25 min on June 7, the longest day, and 11 h 50 min on January 1, the shortest.

What latitude changes in Cape Coast

At 5.1° latitude, the Sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon every night of the year: Fajr and Isha at 18° exist all year round in Cape Coast.

When the angle is not reached, the “Muslim World League” method uses the middle of the night: in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on no day.

No national convention was found for Ghana: times follow the most widely used method, Muslim World League (Fajr at 18°, Isha at 17°).
