Full Description & Details
Konoba Matteo is a mooring in Uvala Mala Nozdra, a sheltered bay on the island of Kaprije in the Sibenik-Knin County of Croatia. The bay sits between the coast and two islets, offering protection from all directions. It holds five visitor buoys managed by the Matteo restaurant, which has operated since the 1980s and is known for fish specialties served on a terrace overlooking the water.
A small quay with several berths is also available, though attention to depth is required. The seabed is algae-covered, and anchoring is permitted. The bay is considered more suitable for smaller craft than for 15-meter yachts.
A separate floating pontoon belongs to Konoba Nozdra G8, which serves fresh fish, seafood, and peka directly on the sea. The nearby Mala Nozdra Beach offers swimming and a peaceful setting. The village of Kaprije, about 3.15 km away, is the closest settlement.
How to get there
Approach Uvala Mala Nozdra from the south passage, where the depth is 3.8 meters. Entering from the northeast, the depth drops to 3.5 meters, and the same depth applies on the west side of the bay. The bay is sheltered between the coast and two islets, providing protection from all directions.
There is no VHF channel; contact the restaurant by phone at +33977010493 to reserve a buoy. The nearest town is Kaprije, about 3.15 km away, and the closest airport is Split, roughly 60 km from the island.
