Veafjorden, Fjord in Vaksdal Municipality, Norway.
Veafjorden is a narrow waterway in Vestland that stretches between the mainland and Osteroy island. The waters are enclosed by steep terrain, and a bridge connects the two sides for easy passage.
The waterway takes its name from an old farm on the shores of Osteroy. This location became a natural gathering point for settlements and commerce in the region over centuries.
Fishing communities have shaped life along these shores for generations. Local people maintain their connection to the water while gradually welcoming visitors to discover this quiet corner.
A bridge makes it easy to cross between Vaksdal and Osteroy without a ferry. The area can be explored on foot along shoreline paths and informal trails.
An old farm on Osteroy island remains cut off from roads and can only be reached by boat or a long walk. This isolation has kept the place untouched by modern development and offers visitors a glimpse into rural life from another era.
