Why people convert Athens to Kenya time
- Scheduling a call from Athens to Kenya: a 10:00 AM start in Athens lands at 10:00 AM in Kenya, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Finding shared working hours: both Athens and Kenya are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM EEST time (9:00 AM–5:00 PM EAT). That is roughly 8 hours of usable overlap.
- Coordinating a Athens-based team with Kenya contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.
- Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM EEST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +0h gap is not.
- Block 9:00 AM–5:00 PM EEST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from Athens and need Kenya colleagues present.
- Athens: Clocks fall back on Sun, Oct 25, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the +0h gap.
