The express boat trip to Langevåg gives you a taste of the Sunnmøre coast. It only takes about 7-8 minutes to go from Ålesund town centre to via small islets and skerries to the island of Sula and the village Langevåg.
The journey crosses Borgundfjorden, famous for its cod fishing season from February to April. Along the way, you’ll experience beautiful views of the fjord and the surroundings of Ålesund. We recommend combining the boat trip with a visit to Langevåg town centre and Devoldfabrikken, which is just a short walk from the expressboat terminal in Langevåg.

About Devoldfabrikken

Today, Devoldfabrikken houses several outlet stores, including Bergans, Swims, Porsgrund Outlet, and by\Sunde. At Kantina, you can enjoy a café experience in a setting inspired by the factory’s history. You can also visit the Devold Museum, a textile museum that tells the story behind Devold of Norway.
