The Amalfi Coast runs along the southern side of the Sorrentine Peninsula, where towns cling to steep slopes above the Tyrrhenian Sea. The drama of the landscape is inseparable from the experience.
Experiencing the region
Private boats offer a superb way to appreciate the coastline without relying entirely on the busy coastal road, while walking, gardens, restaurants and historic towns reward time ashore.
Planning your stay
Choosing the right base matters enormously. Several nights allow the coast to be enjoyed early and late in the day, with Capri, Naples or Sorrento natural additions.
