Austnesfjorden, Fjord in Vågan Municipality, Norway

Austnesfjorden extends for 13 kilometers through Nordland county, dividing the island of Austvågøya into two distinct sections near Svolvær.

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency in Bethesda documented and classified this fjord with specific coordinates in December 1993.

The coastal alpine landscape around the fjord includes the traditional village of Laupstad at its innermost point and Liland on the eastern shore.

The rest area features year-round toilet facilities, including specific provisions for motorhomes, with a wooden walkway leading to observation points.

The fjord's position at 68.263° North latitude makes it part of the Arctic region, with European route E10 running along its western shore.
