It is connected by bridge to the island of Hundvåg to the east (which in turn is connected to the mainland city of Stavanger), and it is also connected to the small islands of Roaldsøy and Ormøy to the south. The island is heavily populated and is covered with houses, although there are still a few larger green spaces left undeveloped.
