Silver lake is an oxbow lake along the right Danube bank in the Braničevo region in eastern Serbia, near the town Veliko Gradište. It is a popular tourist resort.
The lake itself is in the broad, low valley of the Danube, but the neighboring hills rise up from 282m on the north to 362m on the south, while the entire western part of the valley is enclosed by the elongated hill of Veliko brdo and it's highest peak of Anatema(324m). There are historical sites of the medieval city-fortresses of Ram and Golubac also in the vicinity of the lake.
The water is clear due to the lack of pollution and the natural filtration of the water thourgh many sand dunes. The lake is abundant in fish, including white amur, carp, catfish, pike, perch and other freshwater whitefish.
The lake has been a popular holiday and fishing destination for decades, but recently experienced visitor's boom, attracting tourists from all over Central Serbia, despute lack of major accommodations. The lake has one hotel, Srebrno jezero, several restaurants, a weekend settlement and the largest car camping park in Serbia.
As a result of the lake's growing popularity, it has been since recently advertised as "Serbian sea", since Serbia is landlocked. In the next 7 years it is planned build 3 hotels, congresional halls, pools (both covered and opened), golf courses, cycling paths, shopping malls and marina.
