Leirvik is the centre of the municipality of Stord in Hordaland, Norway. Leirvik is also the regional centre of Sunnhordland, and has many public services and offices such as the regional court and the Sunnhordland Folkemuseum.
Leirvik is also a shopping centre in the region of Sunnhordland with many restaurants, and a very popular harbour in the summer.
Confusingly, when the municipality of Stord declared township, they decided to name the town Stord. Even though this is the official name, the public acceptance of this is minimal, so the name of the urban community remains Leirvik.de:Leirvik nn:Leirvik Template:Norway-geo-stub
