Risør's centre occupies a peninsula between Søndeledfjorden and Sandnesfjorden. White wooden houses face the harbours, while boatbuilding, an arts community and summer visitors shape the compact coastal town.
The municipality also includes the wooded countryside around Søndeled and the industrial area at Akland. Engineering and wood industries reveal a side of Risør beyond its harbour frontage.
