Solbergfjorden is a fjord (or more accurately, a strait) on the southeastern side of the large island of Senja in Troms county, Norway. It lies in the municipalities of Tranøy, Dyrøy, Sørreisa, and Lenvik. The 27-kilometre (17 mi) long strait flows into the Vågsfjorden to the southwest and into the Finnfjorden and Reisafjorden in the northeast. Vangsvik is one of the larger settlements along the Solbergfjorden.[1]
