Amalfi Coast

Destinations on the Amalfi Coast

Positano

Positano

The jewel of the Amalfi Coast

Positano is the most photographed town on the coast - and for good reason. Its pastel-coloured houses cascade down a steep hillside directly into the sea, creating one of the most dramatic urban landscapes in Europe. The beach is lively, the boutiques are stylish, and the restaurant terraces offer unbeatable views.

Amalfi

Amalfi

Once a mighty maritime republic

The namesake town of the coast punches far above its weight. The Cathedral of Sant'Andrea, with its stunning Arab-Norman façade, dominates the Piazza del Duomo. The historic paper mills of the Valle dei Mulini were producing paper before most of Europe. Amalfi is the perfect base for exploring the coast by ferry.

Ravello

Ravello

The city of music and gardens

Perched 350 metres above the sea, Ravello is a world apart from the coastal bustle. Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone offer some of the most celebrated garden terraces in Italy - Wagner drew inspiration here, and Gore Vidal called it home for decades. The annual Ravello Festival brings world-class music to the clifftop stage.

Praiano

Praiano

The quiet alternative to Positano

Just 5 km from Positano but worlds away in atmosphere, Praiano is the coast's best-kept secret for those who want to live like a local. Fewer tourists, lower prices, and genuine fishing-village character. The beach at Marina di Praia is one of the most charming on the coast, tucked into a narrow gorge.

Cetara

Cetara

The anchovy capital of the Mediterranean

Cetara is the most authentically Italian town on the coast - a genuine fishing village where the main export is colatura di alici, a fermented anchovy sauce prized by chefs across Italy. The beach is uncrowded, the restaurants are exceptional value, and the pace of life is gloriously unhurried.

Vietri sul Mare

Vietri sul Mare

The gateway to the coast

The eastern gateway to the Amalfi Coast is famous for its distinctive hand-painted ceramics - the colourful tiles that decorate church domes and café walls across southern Italy often come from Vietri workshops. It's an ideal first or last stop on any coastal itinerary.

Maiori

Maiori

The largest beach on the coast

Maiori is the quintessential beach resort of the Amalfi Coast, home to the longest and sandiest beach on the coast. Perfect for families and sun-lovers in no rush, it offers a wide range of beach clubs, restaurants and shops while maintaining a genuine, welcoming atmosphere.

Minori

Minori

The sweet village of the coast

Minori is the affectionate twin of Maiori, smaller and quieter, perfect for those seeking a beautiful beach without the crowds. Famous for its lemons, gastronomic delights and traditional liqueur production. The Roman villa overlooking the sea is a unique archaeological treasure.

Salerno

Salerno

Gateway to the Amalfi Coast

Salerno is the gateway city to the Amalfi Coast: a Norman Cathedral with the Crypt of St Matthew, the Minerva Garden (Europe's first botanical garden), panoramic Castello Arechi, and the famous Luci d'Artista winter lights.

Agerola

Agerola

The balcony above the coast

Agerola is the starting point of the Path of the Gods, at 630 m above sea level. Fresh mountain air, Fior di Latte dairy farms, and breathtaking panoramas over the coast and Capri.

Tramonti

Tramonti

The hidden wine cellar of the coast

Tramonti is the hinterland village of the coast, renowned for Tintore and Costa d'Amalfi DOC wines, the Chiunzi Pass, and 13 hamlets scattered across the hills. Authentic gastronomy at local prices.

Furore

Furore

The village that doesn't exist

Furore is the "village that doesn't exist" — a settlement with no visible centre, scattered across hills above the famous Furore Fjord. Artist murals, panoramic trails, and the most photographed fjord on the coast.

Erchie

Erchie

The secret cove of the coast

Erchie is a small seaside hamlet of Maiori with one of the most beautiful and least crowded beaches on the coast: sand, a Saracen tower, and crystal-clear waters in an authentic atmosphere.

Conca dei Marini

Conca dei Marini

The Emerald Grotto

Conca dei Marini is a tiny village between Amalfi and Positano, famous for the Emerald Grotto with its unique emerald-green light. A handful of houses, silence, and one of the most spectacular views on the coast.
