History

The coastline is rocky and has several fjords which cut into the island.

Most of the island is unsuitable for habitation. The island's inhabitants live in just a few farm areas: Nyhammaren (on the east coast), Stemnebø and Vilsvika (on the south coast), Hjartås (central part of the island, along a fjord), and Straume (on the northern coast).[1]

Transport

In September 2013, a cable ferry connection was opened connecting Hisarøyna to the mainland. The regular ferry route takes about 8 minutes to cross the strait. This is the first regular connection to the island. It will carry up to 6 automobiles or one large truck.[2]
