Byfjorden is a fjord in Rogaland county, Norway. The 10-kilometre (6.2 mi) long fjord runs from the Tungenes Lighthouse at the northern end of the Stavanger Peninsula south along the east side of the peninsula to the city of Stavanger. It passes through the municipalities of Randaberg, Rennesøy, and Stavanger. The islands of Bru, Åmøy, Hundvåg, Buøy, Engøy, Sølyst, and Grasholmen lie along the east side of the fjord. The fjord connects to the Boknafjorden at the north end.
