Overview

Tisno is a community in the Sibenik-Knin County, some 20 km noth of Šibenik, situated on both coasts of a narrow chanel between the coast and Murther island with a risable bridge between. The name itself means more or less "narrow place".   The coat of arms of Tisno is azure over a sword argent hilted or feswise pointing to sinister a cloak gules. The charges refer to St. Martin.

On the flag I have no info, I suspect that it may be dark blue with the Coat of Arms in the middle (judging from the background of the road sign), but a confirmation should be obtained before I draw it.
