Syvdefjorden is a fjord in Vanylven Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The 10-kilometre (6.2 mi) long fjord flows from the village of Myklebost to the north until it empties into the Rovdefjorden. The old Syvde municipality was centered on this fjord until it was merged into Vanylven municipality in 1964. The sides of the fjord are mountainous, particularly the eastern side, with mountainsides stretching up to 800 metres (2,600 ft) high coming right out of the water.[1][2]
