Dikson Travel Guide
Russia
Dikson is a small settlement in Russia's far north, with a population of 1,113. Its remote Arctic location means travellers should plan carefully before setting out and allow for limited local services.
The town is served by Dikson Airport (DKS). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so Dikson is not a beach destination. Expect an Arctic climate, with a long, very cold winter and a short, cool summer.

Tipping: Tipping in Russia is not always mandatory, but it's becoming increasingly common, especially in tourist areas. It's a way to show appreciation for good service.
