Brna

Brna is a coastal village on the southern coast of the island of Korčula in Croatia. It lies within Dubrovnik-Neretva County and is part of the island’s Mediterranean coastal landscape. The settlement is known for its sheltered cove, small beach, and views over the Adriatic Sea, which attract visitors during the summer months. The surrounding terrain features pine forests, olive groves, and limestone outcrops typical of central Dalmatia.

The local economy centers on tourism, fishing, and agriculture. Seasonal visitors come for swimming, boating, and the opportunity to experience a quieter Dalmatian coastal setting. Brna hosts a small marina and a handful of family-run hospitality and dining establishments that serve both locals and guests.

History and culture in and around Brna reflect traditional Dalmatian coastal life. The village preserves stone houses and narrow lanes characteristic of historic settlements along the Adriatic coast. While Brna itself is small, it forms part of a broader Korčula cultural and historical region known for maritime heritage, local crafts, and seasonal events.

Access and transport are primarily by road on the island of Korčula. Brna is connected via local roads to larger towns such as Blato and Korčula town. The island is reachable by ferry from mainland Croatia, with routes from ports like Ploče and Orebić to Korčula Town, after which Brna is reached by road.
