As of 16 February 2015, it runs 66°33′45.6″ north of the Equator. The region north of this circle is known as the Arctic, and the zone just to the south is called the Northern Temperate Zone. The equivalent polar circle in the Southern Hemisphere is called the Antarctic Circle. The Arctic Circle is the southernmost latitude in the Northern Hemisphere at which the sun can remain continuously above or below the horizon for 24 hours (at the June solstice and December solstice respectively). North of the Arctic Circle, the sun is above the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year (and therefore visible at midnight) and below the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year (and therefore not visible at noon). On the Arctic Circle those events occur, in principle, exactly once per year, at the June and December solstices, respectively. However, in practice, because of atmospheric refraction and mirages, and because the sun appears as a disk and not a point, part of the midnight sun may be seen on the night of the northern summer solstice up to about 50′ (90 km (56 mi)) south of the Arctic Circle; similarly, on the day of the northern winter solstice, part of the sun may be seen up to about 50′ north of the Arctic Circle. That is true at sea level; those limits increase with elevation above sea level, although in mountainous regions there is often no direct view of the true horizon. The position of the Arctic Circle is not fixed. It directly depends on the Earth's axial tilt, which fluctuates within a margin of 2° over a 40,000-year period,[2] notably due to tidal forces resulting from the orbit of the Moon. The Arctic Circle is currently drifting northwards at a speed of about 15 m (49 ft) per year; see Circle of latitude for more information. #snow](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6140564/a9f9449e-bab4-40a6-a9a1-5356b0cc2aa8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium) Photo by Sharrie Shaw # Find hotels in Nikiski, AK from CA $97 - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__calendar_shield.svg) ### Change your mind Book hotels with free cancellation - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__deals.svg) ### Treat yourself Sign in to save 10% or more on thousands of hotels [Sign in](https://www.expedia.ca/login) - ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/travel-assets-manager/pictogram-bex/light__bed.svg) ### Be picky Search almost a million properties worldwide ## Go beyond your typical stay in Nikiski Family friendly [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&travelerType=family_friendly) Cabin [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&lodging=CABIN) Pool [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&amenities=POOL) Hot tub [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&amenities=HOT_TUB) Pet friendly [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&amenities=PETS) Cottage [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&lodging=COTTAGE) Apart­ment [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?destination=Nikiski%2C+Alaska%2C+United+States+of+America®ionId=6140564&latLong=60.690277%2C-151.288895&adults=2&startDate=2025-12-20&d1=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-22&d2=2025-12-22&lodging=APARTMENT) ## Check prices for these dates Tonight [Dec 6 - Dec 7](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?regionId=6140564&startDate=2025-12-06&endDate=2025-12-07&adults=2&rfrr=TG.LP.CheckPrices.Hotel&openPlayBack=true) Tomorrow [Dec 7 - Dec 8](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?regionId=6140564&startDate=2025-12-07&endDate=2025-12-08&adults=2&rfrr=TG.LP.CheckPrices.Hotel&openPlayBack=true) Next weekend [Dec 12 - Dec 14](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?regionId=6140564&startDate=2025-12-12&endDate=2025-12-14&adults=2&rfrr=TG.LP.CheckPrices.Hotel&openPlayBack=true) In two weeks [Dec 19 - Dec 21](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?regionId=6140564&startDate=2025-12-19&endDate=2025-12-21&adults=2&rfrr=TG.LP.CheckPrices.Hotel&openPlayBack=true) ## Compare 536 hotels, room rates, hotel reviews and availability.

As of 16 February 2015, it runs 66°33′45.6″ north of the Equator. The region north of this circle is known as the Arctic, and the zone just to the south is called the Northern Temperate Zone. The equivalent polar circle in the Southern Hemisphere is called the Antarctic Circle. The Arctic Circle is the southernmost latitude in the Northern Hemisphere at which the sun can remain continuously above or below the horizon for 24 hours (at the June solstice and December solstice respectively). North of the Arctic Circle, the sun is above the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year (and therefore visible at midnight) and below the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year (and therefore not visible at noon). On the Arctic Circle those events occur, in principle, exactly once per year, at the June and December solstices, respectively. However, in practice, because of atmospheric refraction and mirages, and because the sun appears as a disk and not a point, part of the midnight sun may be seen on the night of the northern summer solstice up to about 50′ (90 km (56 mi)) south of the Arctic Circle; similarly, on the day of the northern winter solstice, part of the sun may be seen up to about 50′ north of the Arctic Circle. That is true at sea level; those limits increase with elevation above sea level, although in mountainous regions there is often no direct view of the true horizon. The position of the Arctic Circle is not fixed. It directly depends on the Earth's axial tilt, which fluctuates within a margin of 2° over a 40,000-year period,[2] notably due to tidal forces resulting from the orbit of the Moon. The Arctic Circle is currently drifting northwards at a speed of about 15 m (49 ft) per year; see Circle of latitude for more information. #snow](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6140564/a9f9449e-bab4-40a6-a9a1-5356b0cc2aa8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=675&p=1&q=high) Photo by Sharrie Shaw ### Stay near popular Nikiski attractions [](https://expedia.ca/Kenai-Visitors-And-Cultural-Center-Hotels.0-l6290254-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) #### Kenai Visitors and Cultural Center After visiting Kenai Visitors and Cultural Center, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Kenai.
