Leirvik

Leirvik lies along Leirvikfjorden on the eastern side of Stord island, where wooded slopes descend towards the sheltered waters of Sunnhordland. As the administrative centre of Stord municipality, it is a compact coastal town with shops, services and ferry-linked connections within this island-dotted part of Vestland. Maritime industry has long helped shape Stord, and the island remains associated with shipbuilding and offshore engineering. Stord Church, set above the town centre, is a familiar local landmark, while the surrounding coastline leads toward coves, small islands and open fjord routes.
