    Alluring towns strung along a spectacular coastline

    Draped along the cliffs on the southern side of the Sorrento Peninsula, between Salerno and the city of Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast is one of the most dramatic and glamorous spots in Italy.

    Connecting the two cities are the winding switchbacks and sheer drops of Amalfi Drive, a road that clings as precariously to the cliff face as the the towns and fishing villages it joins, carving a way flanked by forested mountains and shimmering Tyrrhenian Sea. Along the way, Positano, Amalfi and Ravello’s candy coloured buildings spill their way down into blue bays.

    The peninsular combines affluent sophistication with a honest simplicity, where super yachts and gurgling Italian sports cars next sit amidst an unchanging rural way of life, surrounded by terraced gardens growing olives, grapes and lemons. The food gloriously reflects this and some of Europe’s finest restaurants can be found here, thriving on fresh local produce, whilst the rustic Neapolitan food found everywhere here to many epitomises Italian cuisine.

    The Mediterranean views and food are perhaps the main draw here, along with a suitably romantic collection of fine hotels, but there is a rich history to explore too, hidden beaches to discover and pristine trails in the Lattari Mountains to climb.

    A word from one of our experts

    Dotted with fragrant lemon trees, sparkling bays and colourful terraced rooftops jutting out over the cliffs, Amalfi is a place that has to be seen to be believed. Here you can indulge in all of life’s pleasures, such as food, wine and shopping- without the sense of guilt. That’s the Amalfi Coast to me.

    When to visit

    Italy is a year-round destination. Summers can get very hot and crowds do swell, so spring and early autumn are great times to visit. The sun is still shining and it’s much more pleasant to explore the cities once the intense summer heat has subsided.

    Peak season

    May–September

    Grape & olive harvest

    September–January

    Sailing

    April–November
