Coat of Arms

image by Tomislav Šipek, 15 December 2015

Blazon: I sølv et svart skarvehode. In English: Argent a cormorant head erased sable.
Approved by the royal resolution of 27 March 1987 after a drawing by Kåre Bondesen/Jan Roald Andreassen (as quoted by [c2j88])
While the municipal web site says simply that the arms depict a cormorant since they are abundant in the municipal fauna, the NGW site is probably more to the point noting that the arms are canting - Norwegian "skarv" - cormorant is recognizable in the municipal name, ending in the suffix "øy" meaning island.
