Prestmåsøya[1] is an uninhabited island in Sørfold Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. The 4.21-square-kilometre (1.63 sq mi) island lies at the eastern end of the Folda fjord where it splits into the Nordfolda and Sørfolda. The now-abandoned village of Rørstad lies on the mainland, about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) to the southeast.[2] The island is basically one large rocky, mountain reaching 255 metres (837 ft) above sea level.[3]
