Things to See in Anchorage

When to Visit Anchorage

  • Winter

    Winters are frigid and the days are short. On the shortest day of the year (December 21st), the sun rises at 1:22 PM.
  • Spring

    Some experts suggest visiting in late spring to avoid the crowds. May highs are in the mid-50s and this is the time that many of the tours start running for the short summer season.
  • Summer

    Summer is easily the best (and busiest) time to visit. Daily highs are only in the mid-60s but after a long winter, the city is alive with events and activities.
  • Fall

    Very early fall can be a decent time to visit, but the area cools quickly. October highs are only 40 degrees and many of the activities shut down for the season.

What an amazing tour. We saw whales, dolphins and porpoises. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic. We could really tell they are very respectful towards the animals, we were able to see two humpbacks for nearly half an hour, everybody was silent, the engine was off and the crew was also in awe. Only when the whales left, the engine was back on and we also started moving again. We really felt like we had all the time in the world and we didn't disturb the animals.
