Cascading down the hillside to the Mediterranean in a vertical tumble of white-washed stone, fashionable Positano is a wonder to behold. The view of this beautiful townscape is literally the main attraction. Ancient, winding alleys are festooned with bright boungavillea and steep stairs ascend and descend literally everywhere. Visitors, take note: Good walking shoes and stamina are a requirement!
Don't Miss:
- A visit to Santa Maria Assunta, arguably southern Italy's most famous church with its majolica-tiled dome.
- Casual summer lunch at Da Adolfo on Laurito Beach.
- An afternoon at Spiaggia del Fornillo, a out-of-the-way gem on the west end of town.
- Sunset drinks at the Champagne & Oyster Bar at Le Sirenuse, one of Positano's oldest and most legendary hotels.
