Bremsnes is a village in Averøy Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The village is located on the northeastern part of the island of Averøya, about midway between the villages of Sveggen (to the north) and Bruhagen (to the south).

The 1.43-square-kilometre (350-acre) village has a population (2018) of 1,017 and a population density of 711 inhabitants per square kilometre (1,840/sq mi).
