Neath Port Talbot

About Port Talbot

An industrial town on Swansea Bay, long defined by its steelworks and its long stretch of sandy beach at Aberavon.

Like everywhere else in Wales, Port Talbot 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 Port Talbot receives roughly 1 minutes more daylight than Cardiff, a consequence of sitting further north.

Across the year the swing here is considerable: from 7h 49m of daylight around the winter solstice to 16h 39m at midsummer, a difference of more than 8 hours.
