Pašman continues on from Ugljan and forms a single island chain with it. The north-east coast, along the Pašman Channel, has small villages and sandy beaches, while the south-west coast is uninhabited, with pine woods and bays. Tkon is linked to Biograd by ferry.

In the Pašman Channel the current changes direction several times a day, which keeps the sea particularly clean, but the channel is shallow and full of islets, so you keep to the marked fairway. The bays of the south coast, such as Soline, Žinčena and Lanđin, are good anchorages in maestral and bura, but are open to the south.

For boaters

The small harbours of Tkon, Pašman and Ždrelac, the anchorages of Soline, Žinčena, Sveti Ante and Lanđin on the south coast. The nearest marinas are in Biograd.

Anchorages

  • Uvala Sv. Ante (Pašman)

    Sheltered from Tramontana, Bura, Levant, Jugo, Maestral

    Open to Lebić

    The bay is easy to recognise by its church, and houses stand only in its eastern part. The bottom is sand in the middle and rock towards the shore, the sheltered part has room for four or five sailing boats, and along the shores boats anchor with stern lines ashore. One source (2023) says there are no buoys and no concession and that anchoring is free, while another mentions buoys in the middle of the bay.

  • Uvala Soline (sjeverni krak)

    Sheltered from Tramontana, Bura, Levant, Pulenat, Maestral

    Open to Jugo, Oštro

    The northern arm of Soline bay. There are fewer buoys here than in the southern arm (a user counts about 10, an older concession list 18), and the middle of the bay is used for anchoring; anchoring is not allowed between the buoy field and the shore or within 150 m seaward of it. Book a table at the konoba in advance; according to a 2023 report only one of the two konobas in the bay is still open.

  • Uvala Soline (južni krak)

    Sheltered from Levant, Jugo, Oštro, Lebić, Pulenat

    Open to Tramontana, Maestral

    The southern arm of Soline bay, with most of the buoys (about 30). A strong maestral raises waves of up to half a metre here. Anchoring is not allowed between the buoy field and the shore or within 150 m seaward of it, and larger boats anchor in the middle of the bay.

  • Uvala Lanđin

    Sheltered from Tramontana, Bura, Pulenat, Maestral

    Open to Jugo, Oštro

    The concession field with about 30 buoys is in the inner, northern part of the bay, and anchoring is not allowed within 150 m of it; the smaller field of 5 buoys in front of the konoba in the eastern part is separate. Enter from the south, past the islet off the bay; the passage between the islet and Pašman is only about 2 m deep.

  • Uvala Zaklopica

    Sheltered from Jugo, Oštro, Lebić, Pulenat, Maestral

    A very small cove whose entrance is hard to spot from seaward; there are barely submerged rocks along the north-west and west shores. The buoys lie close together and close to the shore, so check the depth at the edge buoys, and the bottom drops steeply beyond the first buoy. It fills early in summer, arrive before noon.
