Skålvik Fjord

Skålvik Fjord is a coastal inlet in Heim Municipality that extends inland from the sea with several islands scattered throughout its waters. Small villages dot the shoreline and provide access to the waterway from local roads.

The fjord was part of Halsa Municipality until 2020, when administrative boundaries shifted and it became part of Heim Municipality. This change reflected broader municipal reorganization in the region.

The fjord shores maintain traditional Norwegian settlements where residents continue maritime activities and local farming practices.

The fjord is accessible via local roads that connect to villages and viewpoints around the water. Best conditions for exploring occur during calm weather, especially in the warmer months.

Several islands lie between Vågland and Klevset, creating pockets of shelter for boats navigating the waterway. Reit Bay stands out for its protected beaches, which are designated as a nature reserve.
