Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Point Lay?
The best time to visit Point Lay is during the summer months, specifically from June to August, when the weather is mildest and wildlife viewing opportunities are at their peak.

During this period, the tundra is vibrant with wildflowers, and the average daily temperatures are much more comfortable, often ranging from 5°C to 15°C. The extended daylight hours, with nearly 24 hours of sun in June and July, provide ample time for activities and exploration. This is particularly good for travellers keen on photography or spending long periods outdoors without the chill.

Wildlife enthusiasts will find these months ideal. Many species, including various migratory birds, caribou, and arctic foxes, are more active and visible. The warmer waters also make marine mammal sightings, such as beluga whales, more likely, especially near the Kasegaluk Lagoon.
