Jøvik Chapel (Norwegian: Jøvik kapell) is a small church in Troms county, Norway. It belongs to the Church of Norway. It is situated in the village of Jøvik, which is near Kjosen fjord. The chapel is a part of the Ullsfjord parish and is under the Tromsø domprosti (arch-deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland.
