Spain Jet Lag & Day-1 Arrival Planner (CET UTC+1 / CEST UTC+2)
Peninsular Spain & the Balearic Islands observe Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2) from late March to late October (the Canary Islands are 1 hour behind on WET/WEST). Because Spain sits on the western edge of the CET zone, solar noon occurs around 2:00 PM — which makes shifting onto Spain's late lunch (2:00 PM) and dinner (9:00 PM) schedule uniquely easy if you follow a Day-1 plan.
