Fjellværsøya is an island in the municipality of Hitra in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. The island is located in the eastern part of Hitra surrounded by the Frøyfjorden, Kråkvågfjorden, and Fillfjorden.

The small islands of Herøya and Ulvøya lie to the north, the big island of Hitra to the south and west, and the Kråkvåg islands (in Ørland) to the east. The 26.7-square-kilometre (10.3 sq mi) island is connected to the village of Ansnes on Hitra by the Krabbsundet bridge and to Knarrlagsund on the island of Ulvøya by the Knarrlagsund bridge.

The main industries on the island include agriculture, fishing, and fish processing.[1] The Nordbotn chapel is located in the village of Nordbotn.
