The Bahamas uses EST (UTC-5) as its standard time. Clocks move forward in summer for daylight saving time, so the local offset alternates seasonally around the UTC−5 standard. Times on this page are computed in your browser from the IANA time zone database, so they always match the real current time in the Bahamas.
