Prudhoe Bay sits on the Arctic Ocean at the end of the Dalton Highway. Founded in 1826 by British explorer Sir John Franklin, the permanent population is only 5, but the town is supported by the thousands of temporary workers on the Prudhoe Bay oilfield. You can enjoy a visit to the Arctic Ocean and the chance to experience Alaska's midnight sun.
