Traffic & road alerts
Storms make the sea road thrilling but can bring waves over the tarmac. Autumn gales are a spectacle best watched from the pull-offs, not the driving seat.

Driving tips
- Time a visit for a windy day at high tide to see waves crash over the road, from a safe pull-off.
- It is short, so pair it with the nearby Trollstigen or the Geiranger fjord for a full day.
- Bring a windproof jacket. It is exposed and cold even in summer.
