Olderfjord (Norwegian), Leaibevuotna (Northern Sami), or Leipovuono (Kven) is a small village in Porsanger Municipality, Finnmark county, Norway. It sits at the end of Olderfjorden on the eastern coast of the Porsanger Peninsula, along the Porsangerfjorden. The village is where the European routes E6 and E69 meet, about 10 kilometers northwest of Kistrand, home to the historic Kistrand Church. Olderfjord lies very far north, east of Sweden and just east of Helsinki. Because of its latitude, it has long days in summer (midnight sun) and long nights in winter (polar night). There is a tourist center with hotel rooms and apartments, a camping site, and a cafe.
