How Central Coast's prayer times are worked out

From Central Coast, the Qibla is 278° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 13,245 km (8,230 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Central Coast's own coordinates (33.43°S, 151.37°E), not a national average. That is why Central Coast's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Central Coast timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Central Coast lies well west inside its Sydney time zone. So the sun peaks about 63 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:01 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 06m near December down to 11h 25m in June.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Central Coast come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Pittwater, Sydney and Newcastle. Each is only a few minutes off Central Coast's clock.
