Bjørnafjorden is a fjord in Vestland county, Norway. It runs through Austevoll Municipality, Bjørnafjorden Municipality, and Tysnes Municipality. The large island of Tysnesøya lie along the south side of the Bjørnafjorden and the Bergen Peninsula and the mainland lie along the north and east sides of the fjord.
