WINTER TRAVEL. Winter is long in Alaska. I believe that the best time to visit Alaska in the winter is late February and March, which offers more daylight and less extreme temperatures. Anchorage offers a plethora of cross-country ski trails and the world class ski resort, Alyeska, is just 35 miles south of Anchorage.
Expect 12Â°C daytime maximum temperatures in the shade with on average 9 hours of sunshine per day in Alaska in May. Check more long-term weather averages for Alaska in May before you book your next holiday to Alaska in 2018. The May weather averages shown above are for Anchorage.
