Bolsøya is an island in the Fannefjord in the Romsdalsfjord in the municipality of Molde in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is connected to the mainland by the Bolsøy Bridge and to the city of Molde by the Fannefjord Tunnel, both on County Road 64. The island is unique due to its 6-kilometre (3.7 mi) long finger-shaped peninsula that is only 400 metres (1,300 ft) wide at its widest. The Molde archipelago lies just to the west of the island and the island of Sekken lies about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) to the south. The former municipality of Bolsøy was based around this island prior to its merger into Molde.[1]
