image by Tomislav Šipek, 15 December 2015

På blå grunn to motstilte sølv skipsstamnar. Azure two ship bows argent issuant from the flanks.
Approved by the royal resolution of 27 March 1987 after a drawing by Even Jarl Skoglund. [c2j88]
From http://www.ngw.nl/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Her%C3%B8y:
"The arms show two boats which represent the 7th century Kvalsund boats found in the municipality, one small of 9,5 and a longer of 18 m length."
