About Conwy
A walled medieval town on the Conwy estuary, whose castle and town walls form part of the same UNESCO World Heritage Site as Caernarfon.
Like everywhere else in Wales, Conwy keeps Greenwich Mean Time from late October to late March and British Summer Time for the rest of the year. There is no local time variation anywhere in the country, but daylight is a different matter. At the June solstice Conwy receives roughly 21 minutes more daylight than Cardiff, a consequence of sitting further north.
Across the year the swing here is considerable: from 7h 30m of daylight around the winter solstice to 16h 59m at midsummer, a difference of more than 9 hours.
