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. Since it is the northernmost of the Dalmatian islands, along with Olib and Premuda, Silba is often described as the "Gate of Dalmatia". The island of Silba mainly survives on fishing and tourism, mostly nautical tourism, and is deservedly popular during the summer season for its safe harbor and beautiful beaches.However, it is still considered an unknown destination for many boaters.The only settlement on the island is the small village of the same name. 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.

This woode Island is a must visit. My friends and I enjoyed our summer vacation in this place. Its beaches were so spectacular. Swimming int morning was something I would live to remember. I was fascinated with the 'no motor vehicles' policy,

The harbors in this location contribute to the culture of the people. I spent most of my evenings at the harbor in this location watching as some of the waters arrived from fishing. It was a great experience to learn about the catching techniques and preservation methods.

This location has an intimate ambiance to it. I loved the fact it was not very populated and the locals were friendly. My wife and I enjoyed our intimate getaway in this location, interacted with the locals and learned about their way of life.

We were three agricultural officers who decided to visit the place and have an educative class over there on how to improve fishing activities in our area. We learnt Its rich history and why it is described as Gate of Dalmatia. It is good to expound our knowledge by visiting different areas as we did.
