Pašman is a community on the island of the same name
covering the most of the island (the southern end of the island
constitutes the community of Tkon),
2,000 inhabtants, about 450 in the main town of the same name,
about 30 km east of Zadar. Today the
main industry on the island is tourism, especially since it good
ferry connection with Zadar provides easy acces to the island
which is still mostly ratining its original ambience.
The symbols of the community are shown on the community web site although it
does not indicate when they are adopted (I estimate around 2002).
The coat of arms of Pašman is: azure a
five-pointed gaffe spear or. The gaffe spear reminds on the
importance of traditional fishing for this island community.
The flag is light blue with the golden bordered coat of arms in
the middle. The ceremonial flag is light blue
with three rectangular tails, the middle on longer then the other
two, golden fringed at the bottom with the coat of arms in the
middle, golden name of the community above and ornaments of oak,
olive and vine branches in the tails.

Coat of Arms and flag were designed by Heraldic Art d.o.o from
Rijeka and approved by the Ministry of Administration/Central
State Office for Administration before 2006.
