Vik[2] is a village in Vestnes Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located along the Tomrefjorden, just north of the village of Tomrefjord and about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) west-southwest of the village of Vestnes. Vik and Tomrefjord villages have grown together over the years due to conurbation.
Vik has a marching band club and the community center Idahall which is also the site of the local football field. Down by the shore there is a beach known as "Vikstranda" (literally meaning Vik beach), and a small-boat marina. During the late 1990s to early 2010s there also used to be a fast-food restaurant in the village. North of the Vik village there is a light industrial area known as Trohaugen which is the location of many local businesses and companies.
