Kivalina Travel Guide

Alaska, United States

Kivalina is a small city on Alaska’s far north-western coast, with a population of 388. Its remote location places it well north in the state, in a region with long, cold winters and short, cool summers.

Travellers arriving by air use Kivalina Airport (KVL), the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so nearby coastal scenery is better understood as part of the surrounding Arctic shoreline rather than a beach destination.
