Where Mountains Meet the Mediterranean
The Amalfi Coast is a 50-kilometer stretch of Italian coastline that has captivated travelers for centuries with its breathtaking beauty. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this remarkable landscape features vertiginous cliffs plunging into crystalline waters, terraced lemon groves cascading down hillsides, and charming villages painted in every shade of the Mediterranean palette.
Positano, with its cascade of pastel buildings flowing down to a pebble beach, is perhaps the most photographed town on the coast. Amalfi itself boasts a stunning 9th-century cathedral and a maritime history that once rivaled Venice. The hilltop town of Ravello offers serene gardens with panoramic views that have inspired artists, composers, and writers for generations.
The culinary traditions of the coast are as rich as its scenery. Fresh seafood pulled from the Tyrrhenian Sea, handmade pasta, buffalo mozzarella from nearby Campania, and the famous limoncello made from local Sfusato lemons create a gastronomic experience that perfectly complements the stunning setting. Every meal becomes a celebration when enjoyed on a terrace overlooking the sparkling sea.
