Romsdalshalvøya, sometimes translated as the Romsdal Peninsula, is a 1560 km2 peninsula located in the Romsdal district of Møre og Romsdal county in Norway. The peninsula encompasses the western Norwegian municipalities of Molde, Gjemnes, and Hustadvika. The peninsula is connected to the mainland by a 5 km wide isthmus between the villages of Eidsvåg and Eidsøra in Molde Municipality. The peninsula is flanked by a number of fjords: Langfjord and Romsdalsfjord to the south, Julsund (to the west), Hustadvika to the north, Kornstadfjord and Kvernesfjord to the north-east, and Tingvollfjorden and Sunndalsfjord to the east. About 42,000 people live on the peninsula, with another 5,000 on the adjacent islands.
