Amalfi Travel Guide

A World Heritage southern-Italian coastline, from Positano's painted town to Ravello's gardens, joined by a winding coastal road.

📍 Destination Overview

The Amalfi Coast is a World Heritage coastline in southern Italy, where a winding cliff road links towns built right into the cliffs above the sea. Positano's colorful houses cascade down the crag straight to the water — the classic postcard view; Amalfi town's cathedral is solemn and splendid; Ravello's cliffside garden villas overlook the boundless blue. Lemon terraces scent the air, and bay cruises slip between the Emerald Grotto and Capri Island, while the Path of the Gods hike looks down on the coast from the clouds. This is southern Italy's most luxurious, romantic resort.

May–June and September are best, with lemon scent and moderate crowds. July–August is high season — sunny but crowded and pricey; the coastal road is narrow, so in peak season a boat beats a car. Some shops close in winter.
