Vangshylla is a village in Inderøy Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located at the southwest end of the Inderøya peninsula in the Utøya area, surrounded on two sides by the Trondheimsfjord. The village sits at the southern end of the Skarnsundet strait. Until 1991, when the Skarnsund Bridge opened, Vangshylla served as a ferry and fishing port. Since 1964, it was served by the Vangshylla–Kjerringvik Ferry. It has since been converted into a marina and tourist center with rental accommodation for fishing in the Skarnsundet.
