Ålesund, Norway

Alesund is a striking town, rebuilt entirely in Art Nouveau style after a devastating fire — all elegant stonework and towers overlooking a proper fishing harbour. It’s still a working port, with trawlers, pilot boats and visiting tall ships alongside the quay. The approach by sea is dramatic, with islands and skerries demanding accurate navigation. Extend your stay to explore properly- there’s some great guidance on the Visit Norway website.
