Mateev Cove (Bulgarian: Матеев залив, romanized: Mateev zaliv, IPA: [mɐˈtɛɛv ˈzalif]) is the 700 m wide cove indenting for 290 m the south coast of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Part of South Bay, entered east of Yasen Point. Aldan Rock (62°39′13.5″S 60°35′04.2″W / 62.653750°S 60.584500°W / -62.653750; -60.584500) is the largest in a small group of rocks lying off the eastern part of the cove. The UK base camp Station P operated at the cove's head during the 1957/58 summer season.

The cove is named after the Bulgarian physicist Matey Mateev (1940–2010) for his support for the Bulgarian Antarctic programme.
