Tour Description

Your 4-hour journey starts from Ålesund harbor, where Art Nouveau buildings frame views of the open Atlantic. As MS Gamle Havstein sails toward fishing grounds near Alnes and Godøya, your crew shares stories about coastal fishing traditions while preparing equipment suited to current conditions.You'll spend around 2 hours fishing in waters carefully selected for the day's weather and season.
When there's a catch, the crew prepares it onboard so everyone can taste fresh fish from these waters. You'll learn proper handling techniques and can take your catch home. Even without fish, the coastline itself rewards - dramatic cliffs, historic lighthouses, and island views that photographers return for repeatedly.
This tour works well for fishing enthusiasts wanting local knowledge, families with children 5 and older, and travelers interested in coastal culture beyond standard sightseeing.
Let MS Gamle Havstein be your gateway to Sunnmøre’s maritime world – join in on an adventure filled with learning, natural beauty, and memories that will last a lifetime.
