Prayer times in Ponta do Sol — common questions
What time is Fajr in Ponta do Sol today?
Fajr in Ponta do Sol begins at 05:03 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.
Which direction is the Qibla from Ponta do Sol?
From Ponta do Sol, the Qibla is 74.6° from true north — roughly ENE. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.
Which calculation method is used for Ponta do Sol?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Cabo Verde. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.
Are these times accurate for a place the size of Ponta do Sol?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from Ponta do Sol's own coordinates, not borrowed from a larger neighbouring city, so the astronomy is exactly as accurate as it is for a capital. The only caveat is that we use a single reference point for the settlement.
How far is Ponta do Sol from Makkah?
Ponta do Sol lies approximately 6782 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.
