Shabbat Times in Santo Domingo

Halachic note

Santo Domingo follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.

Santo Domingo is home to a warm and welcoming Jewish community centered around the Beth Midrash Eleazar synagogue. Visitors can arrange for kosher Shabbat meals in advance and will find a small but active community with a unique history dating back to refugees in the 1930s.
