Szentendre Island, River island in Pest County, Hungary

Szentendre Island extends for 31 kilometers along the Danube River, covering 56 square kilometers between the Danube Bend and Budapest.

The villages of Kisoroszi, Tahitótfalu, Pócsmegyer, Surány, Szigetmonostor, and Horány maintain traditional Hungarian rural practices through generations.

Visitors can reach the island via the Tildy Bridge or through ferry services operating across both the Szentendre and main branches of the Danube.
