Yes, Fairbanks is several hundred miles from the ocean, BUT if you arrive in Alaska via the Alaska Marine Highway into Skagway, Haines, Valdez, or Seward there may be direct or connecting shuttles to Fairbanks. This seems to change from year to year. Check with Alaska Direct Bus Lines or the Fairbanks Visitor Center for the most current information.
