The Åkrafjord Tunnel (Norwegian: Åkrafjordtunnelen) is a road tunnel in Etne municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The 7,404-metre (4.6 mi) long tunnel is located on the European route E134 highway, on the southeastern side of the Åkrafjorden, about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) northeast of the village of Etnesjøen.
