Kotzebue, Alaska sits on a 3-mile-long spit at the northwest end of Baldwin Peninsula in Kotzebue Sound and about 30 miles above the Arctic Circle.

Kotzebue is a popular stop for visitors on airline package tours who want to see a bit of the Arctic landscape and visit the Innaigvik Education and Information Center to learn about the people. The northwest Arctic is a haven for wildlife and a heaven for who subsist on it or merely want to observe it.
