Inland Konobas – Authentic Dalmatian Cuisine

Beyond the coastline lies another culinary treasure: the island’s traditional konobas.

Under the peka you will typically find:

• Lamb or octopus
• Potatoes and seasonal vegetables
• Olive oil, rosemary, and local herbs
• Slow cooking that creates rich, deep flavours

Concierge Tip
Peka meals require advance preparation of several hours, so reservations should ideally be made a day in advance.
