Milna is a village and municipality on the western side of the island of Brač, Split-Dalmatia County, Croatia.

It is situated in a deep bay oriented towards the island of Mrduja and Split Channel, on the west. The village was settled in the 16th century, by shepherds from Nerežišća.

Milna is notable for being the sole location on the island where the Chakavian dialect is spoken. Milna was attacked during the Battle of the Dalmatian channels on November 14, 1991, and it is the only settlement on Brač that have been directly attacked during the Croatian War of Independence.
