The December Solstice, also known as the Southern Solstice, is a significant astronomical event in Kiribati and worldwide. It occurs when the sun reaches its southernmost point from the equator, marking the longest night and shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. In Kiribati, which straddles the equator and extends into both hemispheres, this solstice typically occurs on December 21 or 22.
As a nation composed mainly of atoll islands dispersed over a large area in the central Pacific Ocean, Kiribati's connection to natural cycles remains essential but is more oriented towards maritime life and less focused on solar events like solstices compared to temperate regions.
