Fusa (village)

Fusa is a village in Bjørnafjorden municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The village is located on the eastern shore of the Fusafjorden, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) southwest of the village of Eikelandsosen. The village of Strandvik lies about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) to the southeast of Fusa and the village of Osøyro lies about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) straight west (across the fjord). The village was historically the administrative centre of the old municipality of Fusa which is why Fusa Church is located here, but more recently the administration was moved to the larger village of Eikelandsosen until 2020.
