Milna Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

Milna is a small town on the island of Brac in Croatia, founded at the turn of the 17th century, on the northwest side of the island. The welcoming bays of Milna have always been favorite port to sailors sailing through the Middle Adriatic. Milna is still reputed as the most beautiful and the safest harbor of Brač.

Buses run several times a day from Supetar, the village where the ferry docks. Unfortunately, they stop in the late afternoon or early evening -- even in summer!, so you must rent a scooter or car, or take a taxi.

A car or boat rental will let you explore the island and reach idyllic beaches.

The ferries to the island are operated by Jadrolinija and Krilo Shipping Company. While there is no car ferry directly to Milna, car ferries arrive to Supetar from Split and to Sumartin from Makarska.

Additionally, a passenger catamaran connects Milna with Split, Vis, Solta and Hvar (one connection daily in the main summer season). All ferry line are listed on RAFT Croatia^{[dead link]} ferry platform.
