Lauvøya[1] is an island in Flatanger Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The island sits just off the mainland coast, across from the village of Lauvsnes.[2] The main church for northern Flatanger, Løvøy Church, is located on the island.

The island has several homes on it and has become an important recreational area for the municipality.
