Your answer depends on where you are south of the Antarctic Circle -- 66 degrees S to the South Pole: 90 degrees S. There are 1,656 miles or 2,664 km between those two points of latitude.
As well, it depends on the time of year, because the sunlight length every day is different.
At the South Pole, for example, there are six months of sunlight and six months without sunlight.
At the Antarctic Circle, there is one day -- December 21, with no sunset, and one day -- June 21, with no sunrise.
