what is our time zone in south africa
South African Standard Time (SAST) is the time zone used by all of South Africa, Botswana as well as Swaziland and Lesotho. The zone is two hours ahead of UTC (UTC + 2) and is the same as Central Africa Time. Daylight saving time is not observed in either time zone. Solar noon in this time zone occurs at 30 ° E in SAST, effectively making Pietermaritzburg at the correct solar noon point, with Johannesburg and Pretoria slightly west at 28 ° E and Durban slightly east at 31 ° E. Thus, most of South Africa's population experience true solar noon at approximately 12: 00 daily.
