Søre Øyane

Søre Øyane is an urban area in the municipality of Os, Hordaland, Norway. It is located on an archipelago on the south-western coast of Os, south of the larger island of Strøno. The archipelago consists of four major islands, Røtinga, Bruarøy, Sundøy, and Lepsøy, as well as several smaller islands and islets, many of which are uninhabited. Lepsøy, the northernmost island, is located adjacent to the mainland, which it is connected to by a short bridge. A longer bridge spans the strait between Lepsøy and Sundøy, which in turn is connected to Røtinga and a smaller island, Brattholmen, through Bruarøy.

The Søre Øyane urban area, as defined by Statistics Norway, had a population of 798 in 2008. The urban area covered an area of 0.99 km2, and had a population density of 806 per km2.[1]
