About Alofi time
Alofi keeps one clock.
In Alofi, the northernmost territory in Niue, the day dawns early and wraps up well before midnight — this corner of Niue keeps UTC−11:00 all year, well ahead of the US business day. Business hours usually run from early morning to early afternoon, giving workers a long stretch of afternoon daylight for local activities or catching the evening meal under open skies. Coordination with the Americas can be tricky; when it’s morning in California, Niue’s workday is already underway.
