Ålesund to Alnes & Godøya: Half-Day Coastal Culture and Viewpoint Tour

You step off the minivan onto a wind-swept coastal road and the sea announces itself first: a salty draft that pushes at your jacket, gulls arguing overhead, and a coastline cut into craggy outcrops. The guide points to a distant white tower—Alnes Lighthouse—perched like an exclamation mark at the end of a low basalt promontory. For the next five hours you’ll move between two scales of Norway: Ålesund’s compact town center—an Art Nouveau pageant of turrets and carved stone—and Godøya’s raw coastal geometry, where fishermen’s boathouses comb the shoreline and WWII bunkers linger in the grass.
