About Amalfi Coast


The Amalfi Coast in Italy is a seductive and beautiful Mediterranean landscape with a fascinating blend of both natural and cultural wonders, found in the south of Naples in Campania. Hemmed in by high mountains, are the quaint fishing villages stacked perilously above the blue sea forming an up and down sequence with terraced vineyards and orchards of unique and breathtaking view. The picturesque alleys of a narrow ribbon of tarmac engulfed by Mediterranean marquis overlook the vibrant waters of the sea creating a dramatic terrain- the world famous 'Amalfi Drive.' It is the spectacular culturally rich towns and villages that bring life to this unique Mediterranean scenery with their rugged landscape boasting of Italian culture. Positano, one of the most famous towns of the Amalfi Coast stands out as the hub of Italian culture with its well-known and colorful Positano fashions and large-domed, tiled in majolica and precious marble altars- the Parish Church of Santa Maria Assunta.
