The village is located on the steep, eastern shore of the Istrian peninsula, on cliffs high above the Kvarner Gulf, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) south of Opatija. It is connected to Rijeka and Pula by the D66 highway.
Most of the town houses in Brseč were built in the 17th century, while the walls, fortifications and church belfry were built in the early Middle Ages. Kaštel, the old core around which the settlement later developed, also dates from the Middle Ages.
