Local time in Tanta runs on the EEST, UTC+03:00 clock; with roughly 576.6K residents the city (rank #10 by population in this dataset) is a working reference point inside Ägypten.
The coordinates 30.79°N, 31.00°E put Tanta roughly 3418 km from the equator in the subtropics of the Northern Hemisphere, which is why the page expects warmer-half daylight that stretches noticeably in summer.
Today the sun rises around 06:14 AM and sets around 07:32 PM in Tanta — about 13h 18m of daylight. Ägypten observes daylight saving time on this zone, so the offset shifts seasonally.
As Sanţah (13 km from Tanta) gives this page its nearest commuter and travel cluster, with 3 curated airport pages indexed for Ägypten.
Tanta planners should mark 2026-05-01 (Labour Day); that's the next national holiday signal in view.
