Nome - Alaska
Nome lies in Western Alaska adjacent to Northwest Arctic Borough, Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area and Wade Hampton Census Area. Nome is one of the most affordable Alaskan destinations for travellers. It has a range of hotels to camping possibilities.
A strange and somewhat unexpected name of Golden Sands Beach, stretches for a mile east of the town. For those who dare, it is possible to swim in the sea during the summer months when the sea reaches a staggering temperature of 45 degrees fahrenheit. In May, you can join the fun when residents plunge into the icy waters for the annual Polar Bear Swim.
