Cres (API, [tsrɛs], en italien Cherso) est une île croate de la mer Adriatique, en Dalmatie. Elle est la deuxième plus grande des îles de Croatie juste derrière Krk et ses également 405,78 km2. Il existe d'ailleurs chez les habitants de Cres et Krk une rivalité concernant la taille des deux îles à tel point que les sites des offices de tourisme respectifs mentionnent chacun que leur île est la plus grande.
