42°54'.1N 16°51'.7E Charts BA 1574, 2712, SC 5767, MK 21, 22, 23, lmray M26 Tucked in behind Rt Veli Zaglav the harbour of Brna and Uvala Kosirina, an inlet to the N of the village, enjoy shelter from all winds except SW. Brna is a good place to stay overnight. The wooded surroundings, and the small, unspoilt village are relaxing. The anchorage to the N of the harbour is more sheltered (particularly from W), although it is shallower than Brna.
Approach
The harbour is easily identified and entered by day and night. There is a conspicuous radio mast on a hill to the E of the entrance. The light structure on the wooded Rt Veli Zaglav helps identify the entrance. Approaching from E there are no off-lying dangers, but do not pass too close to Rt Veli Zaglav because of depths of less than 6m to the W of the headland. Approaching from W there are no dangers if passing to seaward of the off-lying chain of islands. If passing inside the islands note in particular: the shoal off 0. Kosor (depths of 3.5m); Hrid Cerio (the low islet or rock S of Prizba); and the shoals NW and NE of 0. Stupa with 6m and Sm over them.

Berth
If entering the village harbour go bow/stern to the quay noting that there are depths of less than 0.5m along parts of the quay. The pier has a protruding ledge at water level, which means that low fenders and a fender board are necessary. Avoid the ferry berth, or else be prepared to move if the ferry comes 10. Anchor Anchor in 7m at the head of the bay, taking a line ashore if there is a bora. A more sheltered anchorage is in Uvala Kosirina, the inlet to the NW of the village. Anchor here in 5-8m. The bottom is mud and sand. Take lines ashore for added security. The peaceful harbour and village of Luka Brna on Otok Korcula
Shelter
The shelter is good from all directions except SW and W, which create a surge in the harbour. Uvala Kosirina is sheltered from all except SW winds.
