Midøya is an island in Midsund Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The 13.6km2 island sits at the entrance to the Romsdalsfjorden between the islands of Dryna and Otrøya. Until 1965, the island was divided between the municipalities of Sør-Aukra and Vatne. The Midsund Bridge connects this island to the village of Midsund on the neighboring island of Otrøya.NameThe Old Norse form of the name was Miðja. The name is identical with the word miðja which means "in the middle". The island lies between the two other islands of Dryna and Otrøya - but it could also refer to the fact that the island was an important border mark between Sunnmøre/Gulating and Romsdal/Frostating. (Mentioned as that in Historia Norvegiae - and it continued to be so until 1965).
