Silba island

Silba is a beautiful wooded island in Northern Dalmatia, located 10 km southeast of the island of Loshinj between the islands of Premuda and Olib.

According to the last census from 2011, the island has only 292 permanent residents.All motorized traffic is prohibited from the island, except for a few agricultural vehicles, so the whole island is a pedestrian zone.Silba is well connected by ferries from Zadar, Mali Loshinj, Pula and Venice, as well as with other islands in the Zadar archipelago.
