Selinog is an island barangay in Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte, Philippines. It is coterminous with Silino Island and is located 12.9 kilometers (8.0 mi) off Tagolo Point, the northern entrance point to Dapitan Bay, and some 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) east of the island of Aliguay in the Bohol Sea. The island is a flat coralline island with a land area of 78 hectares (190 acres). It is surrounded by 70 hectares (170 acres) of coral reefs and sandy areas. According to the 2010 census, the island community has a population of 712 inhabitants.

With its white sand beaches and rich aquatic resources, Selinog was declared a marine reserve by the local government of Dapitan. In April 2000, the Philippine government through Proclamation No. 276 established the 1,294-hectare (3,200-acre) Selinog Island Protected Landscape and Seascape covering the whole island and surrounding reefs to better manage its resources.
