On Amalfi Coast every day there is something to do or to visit.
A nice travel by boat on the sea or walking on the mountanious
admiring the beauty of the landscape. A visit to Ravello to listen to
concert of piano or a visit to Pompei to admire the ruins of the Roman empire
There is no other place comparable on earth. Here some pictures and description
of the most beautyful places on Amalfi Coast
Positano, has rapidly gained a name as international
center of major importance. Because of its characteristics
dome-shaped roofs reminiscent of the Moorish Mediterranean
style and because of its many fantastic scenarios of wild,
primitive beauty, from a distance it looks like a wonderful
Crib made by a Unique Maker who has left a mark of His constructive
presence everywhere.
From the main beach, Positano appears to be a pyramid of houses climbing
towards the sky.
For most, beaches are its main attraction. To the east side there are the little
beaches of Laurito, San Pietro, Arienzo, Fiumiciello, La Porta. On the western side
the beach of Fornillo, Remmese and more. In the limpid sea facing Positano, there are the three
rocky isles called Li Galli. You will have a nice tour with a boat around all the coast.
But Positano is also a fantastic natural reserve where walking through charming
itineraries in close contact with wonderful mountain landscape.
Very suggestive the Gods' Path that connects Positano to Praiano, Furore and Agerola.
From the heights of these mountains you will discover some of the most spectacular views
of Positano and Amalfi coast.
Over 200 itineraries have been traced out, thus making Positano the most important
centre for sport climbing.
