  The Amalfi Coast

One of the most enchanting tourist destinations in the world, the Amalfi Coast is made up of coastal towns between Positano and Vietri sul Mare, at the gateway of Salerno.

It is a territory of extraordinarily stunning landscapes, in which the activity of man has perfectly integrated itself, over years of patient work in order to create out of the jagged cliffs patches of land for agricultural use and construction.
As a result, a unique landscape was created, enriched by historical and architectural testimony.

The ‘Divina’ has a wealth of beautiful monuments including the Cathedral of Amalfi, dedicated to St. Andrew and dating back to the IX century, the Church of Santa Maria Assunta in Positano, the churches of San Salvatore del Birecto and Santa Maria Maddalena in Atrani, Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone in Ravello, the churches of San Luca and San Gennaro in Praiano and their relative viewpoints, the Church of San Pancrazio in Conca dei Marini and its viewpoint, and the Church of Santa Trofimena and the Villa Romana in Minori.

The towns of the Amalfi Coast can be reached via land and sea connections, for a holiday under the banner of sea, tradition and cuisine, while staying in one of the many hotels present along the Amalfi Coast.

The numerous ferries that connect Salerno to these towns along the coast give easy access to the most beautiful coastal destinations, providing tourists with unique scenery, as they admire the small towns overhanging a crystal clear sea.

The maritime service to the coastal towns is available from June to September.

Those wanting to visit the Amalfi Coast by car should follow the SS 163, a scenic, but very busy road, especially during the summer period.And for those who wish to travel to the main tourist towns of the coast by bus, there is an active service from Salerno run by SITA, the suburban transport company for the Province of Salerno.
