Amalfi, Italy - Amalfi Coast

Amalfi is a beautiful seaside town of about 5,500 residents. It sits perched along the famous Amalfi Coast, one of Europe’s most dramatic stretches of road. Historically it is one of the original ancient Maritime Republics and a major port and trading center in the Mediterranean.

This town offers stunning vistas, lovely piazzas lined with cafes and restaurants and shops for all of your needs. There are also some fine sights, such as the town’s Duomo, Sant’Andrea. Enjoy the church itself or visit its Cloister of Paradise and Crypt where the remains of Saint Andrew are kept. Or just relax along on its lovely beach.

Amalfi is a great home base for hopping all along the coast. Buses and ferries keep regular schedules and make day trips to places like Positano, Sorrento, Pompeii and Capri very easy.

When traveling to the Amalfi Coast, it's essential to be prepared for a landscape characterized by dramatic cliffs, narrow streets, and picturesque villages perched on steep hillsides. This unique topography means that stairs are an integral part of the experience, as many locations are accessible only by foot. The stairs can range from quaint, narrow alleyways to long flights that connect different levels of the town or lead down to the sea. While this might require more effort, it also offers a more intimate and immersive experience, providing breathtaking views and the opportunity to explore hidden gems. Embracing the stairs is a part of embracing the authentic charm and beauty of the Amalfi Coast.
