Overview

Why go to Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is a dramatic stretch of coastline of pastel villages stacked above the sea, linked by a twisting road and by ferries. Come for views, lemon groves, long lunches and clifftop walks.

The Amalfi Coast is a string of villages along about 50 km of winding road. Ferries and buses help, and summer traffic can be slow.
