Comment from Natalie Grant
The season in which you visit a wilderness haven like Alaska can impact not just the weather but the prices, population, and activities you can physically do. As always, there are pros and cons to any season, so, to help you make the best decision for the type of vacation you’re looking for, here is a list of things to consider:
The day/night hours are much more dramatic. Alaska is much farther north than you might realize, so the ‘length’ of the day increases by more than a few hours of sunlight. June 21, also known as the summer solstice on non-leap years, holds around 19 hours of daylight (depending on where in Alaska you are).Editor’s Note: This recommendation was taken from our Alaska Things To Do blog.
