Filip i Jakov lies the island of Pasman. The sea between Pasman and the mainland is called the Pasman Canal. In addition, there are several smaller islands in this narrow strip of land, which have a nice view from the mainland and can be used as a target for hiked boat trips. The Pašman Canal is also the venue of sailing races every year.

This sandy beach is especially suitable for families with small children. The beach is divided by wide concrete mills, and in some parts it is lined with pine trees, so it offers a pleasant shade. Iza Banja Beach was awarded the "Blue Flag" - a symbol of cleanliness.

Three thousand years ago there existed in the territory of today's town of Sv. Filip i Jakov, a small Liburnian settlement (the Liburns were an Illyrian tribe inhabiting Liburnia, ie the coastal area in today's Croatia between the Rasa and Krka rivers).
