Lekafjorden seen from the island of Leka looking over Austra

Lekafjorden is a sound and fjord situated between the islands of Leka and Austra in the municipalities of Leka and Nærøysund, Trøndelag, Norway. The fjord is about 20 kilometers (12 mi) long.[1]

In the south, Lekafjorden runs roughly east–west between the islands of Dolma and Madsøya, before turning in a northeastern direction past Leka and Austra. At the turning point, Årsetfjorden branches off eastwards and around the east side of Austra.[2] To the south, Lekafjorden continues as Risværfjorden.

The Skei–Gutvik Ferry crosses the fjord.[3]
