About Lima time
Lima keeps one clock.
Lima, Peru's sun-drenched coast runs on America/Lima at UTC-5 all year-round with no clock changes, so meetings stay reliably in daylight on either side of the equator. Quick heads-up: coastal Peru’s typical late-morning ramp-up means scheduling calls from mid-week mornings lands neatly in that sweet coastal work groove.
