Storevar is a village in Sandefjord Municipality in Vestfold county, Norway. The village is located along the Tønsbergfjorden, just south of the village of Melsomvik, about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) to the southeast of the large village of Stokke, and about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) to the north of the village of Råstad.

The 0.2-square-kilometre (49-acre) village had a population (2014) of 339 and a population density of 1,695 inhabitants per square kilometre (4,390/sq mi). Since 2015, the population and area data for this village area has not been separately tracked by Statistics Norway, but instead it has been considered part of the Melsomvik urban area.[2]

There are three islands in the fjord just outside Storevar: Gåsøykalven, Gåsøy, and Ravnø. During winters, the ocean occasionally freezes and makes it possible to hike to the islands from the village.[3]
