Povlja (pronounced [pôːvʎa], locally Povje pronounced [pôːvje]) is a village on the island of Brač in Croatia. The village itself is located in a deep natural harbour surrounded by many other deep natural harbours, bays (Luke). Because of that it is famous for short-time docking and overnight docking for charter sailors and yachters. There are a couple of restaurants with superb local cuisine.

The only hotel is to be renovated but the date of reopening is still unknown. However, many locals run their own business with renting out apartments in most houses in the village. Booking is best done well ahead of plan visit due to overbooking. Place features many beaches varying from stone, concrete to tiny pebble beach.
