Other village areas include Rognaldsvåg, Grov, Nyttingnes, Steinhovden, and Brandsøy. The municipality is named after the farm Floro since the town of Florø was built on its ground in 1860.

The municipality stretches from inner fjords where the mountains ascend to the glacier Ålfotbreen, to the outermost coast. The town is today both a charming little community, and at the same time a town with busy industries that are developing continuously.

The coat-of-arms, originally made for the town of Florø, were granted on 19 February 1960. It's red with three herrings on it. The three herrings are a symbol for the great importance of herring fishing for the local development and economy. The Church of Norway has seven churches within the municipality of Floro.

At the height, there lived approximately 15,000 people on Kinn and the surrounding islands in the herring season.
