Valsøyfjorden is a fjord in Halsa Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is a 10-kilometre (6.2 mi) fjord arm off of the Arasvikfjord and it runs south past the island of Valsøya. The villages along the fjord include Engan, Hjellnes, and Valsøybotnen. The Valsøy Bridge is part of European route E39 and it was built in 1993 to cross over mouth of the fjord so travelers did not have to drive all the way around the fjord.
