Polaris, also known as the North Star, can be seen during the day under specific conditions, such as when the sky is exceptionally clear and the sun is low on the horizon. This is typically around sunrise or sunset when the brightness of the sun is less intense. However, due to its brightness and position, it's often difficult to spot during daylight hours. Generally, viewing Polaris is best done at night when it is fully visible against the dark sky.
