SOUTHERN AFRICA TIME

Southern Africa and South Africa does not change its clocks during the year, and there are no regional variations within the country. South African and Southern Africa Standard Time is two hours ahead of Greenwich Mean (or Universal Standard) Time, one hour ahead of Central European Winter Time, and seven hours ahead of the USA's Eastern Standard Winter Time.

Get on local time as soon as possible even if it’s just for the first night, allowing your body to stay on your hometown time makes it very hard to get over jetlag. The sooner you get on the local schedule the better, so even if it feels like two in the afternoon, if it’s time for bed in your new location, hit the sheets!
