About Choghadiya in Zanzibar

Zanzibar's Choghadiya is calculated from Zanzibar's actual local sunrise (6:24 AM GMT+3 today) and sunset (6:22 PM GMT+3). Zanzibar is 2h 30m behind IST. Today Zanzibar has 11 hr 58 min of daylight. Each period shows both local Zanzibar time and its IST equivalent, so you can coordinate auspicious timing with family in India.

Choghadiya has 8 daytime and 8 nighttime periods. Amrit (best), Shubh, and Labh (good) are ideal for ceremonies, travel, and new ventures. Udveg, Kaal, Rog are inauspicious.

Today's first recommended window in Zanzibar is Labh — 7:53 AM–9:23 AM GMT+3 (10:23 AM–11:53 AM IST).

Since all Choghadiya periods are anchored to sunrise, early risers may also note that today's morning golden hour in Zanzibar runs 6:24 AM–6:52 AM (28 min) and evening golden hour 5:54 PM–6:22 PM (28 min) — the same sunrise that begins the first daytime Choghadiya.
