The name literally means "the west fjord", although it is called a fjord, it could best be described as a firth or an open bight of sea. The "fjord" lies between the Lofoten archipelago and the Salten district of mainland Norway. The term fjord is used more generally for bodies of water in the western Scandinavian languages than the more narrow usage assigned in English.
The Vestfjord flows from the area near the town of Narvik to the west and southwest. The mouth of the Vestfjord is about 80 kilometres wide, roughly running from the mainland town of Bodø to the islands of Røstlandet and Værøya to the northwest of Bodø.
