Who hasn’t heard of the Amalfi Coast? A stunning stretch of coastline in southern Italy, with picture perfect villages that overlook the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Just looking at the photos of the sun drenched colourful houses perched on cliff edges and stripped beach umbrellas has me itching to book a flight!
Most people when they think of the Amalfi Coast tend to think of Sorrento, Positano, Ravello and Amalfi. There are actually 13 municipalities along the Amalfi Coast – and no Sorrento is not one of them – though it is the unofficial northern starting point. Notoriously hard to get to, which probably adds to the mystique, the Amalfi region has only one land route which runs from the town of Vietri sul Mare all the way to Positano. There are no trains or planes, just cars, a bus and ferries. So pack light!
