These three neighboring islands are located very close together, only a few hundred meters separate them at certain points. Historically, this island was the centre of the old Fjelberg Municipality. Today, the islands of Fjelbergøya and Borgundøya are still often collectively referred to as Fjelberg.

The island is only accessible by the sea, either using ferries or personal boats. There are regular ferry routes from Leirvik-Borgundøya-Fjelbergøya-Halsnøya-Utbjoa, connecting several islands to the mainland at Utbjoa in Vindafjord Municipality.
