Austefjorden{{Cite web |title=Informasjon om stadnamn |url=https://stadnamn.kartverket.no/fakta/253856 |access-date=2025-05-10|website=Norgeskart |publisher=Kartverket |language=no}} is a small fjord which branches off of the main Voldsfjorden in Volda Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The {{convert|11|km|adj=on}} long fjord lies in the Sunnmørsalpene mountains about {{convert|5|km}} north of the mountain Eidskyrkja in the northeastern part of the municipality. The Austefjorden and the Kilsfjorden join together to form the Voldsfjorden. The village of Fyrde is located at the innermost part of the fjord. There are several small peninsulas and outcroppings that jut out into the fjord, giving the fjord a meandering S-shaped path.{{cite web|url=http://www.yr.no/place/Norway/M%C3%B8re_og_Romsdal/Volda/Austefjorden/|title=Austefjorden|publisher=yr.no|language=Norwegian|accessdate=2010-09-19| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100913084929/http://www.yr.no/place/Norway/M%C3%B8re_og_Romsdal/Volda/Austefjorden/| archivedate= 13 September 2010 | url-status= live}}{{Cite SNL|Voldsfjorden|Voldsfjorden|2025-05-10|Thorsnæs|Geir|2022-09-27}}
