Stiniva Bay (Hvar – Brusje)

Stiniva on the northern coast of Hvar lies below the village of Brusje, approximately 6 kilometers from Hvar Town and accessible by car via the Brusje road. The bay forms part of a cluster of sheltered coves in this area, including Jagodna, Zastupac, Sviracina, and Lozna. Pine forest covers the slopes above the water, providing shade, and the bay catches the afternoon mistral wind. The combination of pine shade and consistent sea breeze makes this stretch a popular alternative to the busier beaches near Hvar Town.
