Dyrnes is a village in the municipality of Smøla in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located on the northwestern part of the island, just east of Råket, and southwest of Veiholmen. The Smøla Wind Farm is located southeast of the village.

Together with the nearby village Råket it constituted the urban area Dyrnesvågen, which had a population in 2003 of 257.[2] Since 2004, Dyrnesvågen has not considered an urban settlement by Statistics Norway, and its data is therefore not registered.[3]
