Beach near Norilsk, Russia

Norilsk Travel Guide

Russia

Norilsk is a city of around 140,800 people in northern Russia, well within the Arctic region. Its far-northern location means travellers should expect long, cold winters and short, cool summers, with significant seasonal changes in daylight.

Most visitors arrive by air through Noril'sk Airport, the city’s listed airport. Norilsk does not have any notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better approached as an Arctic city destination rather than a beach base.
