English: Straumøya Nature Reserve is located on Straumøya, Nordland, Norway on the southern side of the start of the Saltfjord, and includes a marshland landscape between Seines and Seivåg, in a valley along the middle of the island. The marshals are divided by rock cuttings and shallow land and a total of five waters. The seine lake in the west is shallow with the bottom of marine settlements and richly developed water vegetation, especially in the western part. The long water network in the central part is well sheltered from the settlement between two ridges, and is surrounded by marshlands with scattered pulses of short-lived pine. Shallow, soaked wetlands are mainly concentrated to the eastern part of the lake.

Ornithologically, the various waters and bogs of the conservation proposal work as a system together with, among other things, Seinesodden nature reserve. Seinesvatnet is an unusually rich and productive wetland site and represents the ornithological main area.
