Italy’s Amalfi Coast is one of those indescribably stunning parts of the world.
A beautiful and vibrant stretch of coastline, the Amalfi Coast encapsulates the beauty of southern Italy with its towering, pastel-housed cliff tops leading down to gorgeous beaches of turquoise waters!
Whether you’re lazing around on Positano Spiaggia, possibly the world’s most famous beach, taking a boat out to the elegant island of Capri or hiking atop the rugged Path of the Gods, you can easily see why the Amalfi Coast was once a hotspot for the celebrity jetset.
The best times to visit the Amalfi Coast is in summer’s shoulder months, specifically May and September. But why visit on the outside of summer? It’s simple, really: the crowds are fewer and the temperatures are actually far more pleasant!
If you don’t want to accidentally share beach towels with strangers and get weighed down by oppressive heat and increased prices, the best months to go to the Amalfi Coast are certainly May and September.
Let’s take a look at some of the awesome experiences that await you…
An enchanting island adventure
Capri is one of Italy’s most beloved islands, an elegant-yet-rugged Meditteranean outpost as revered for its natural wonder as it is for its materialist elements. You can spend the morning taking a boat tour around this gorgeous island and its glistening waters before spending the afternoon shopping at any number of high-end luxury stores – this is what makes Capri such a delight for travellers of all interests!
But, whether you have a passion for fashion or a love for nature, be sure to check out the magical Blue Grotto, take a chairlift up Monte Solaro and have an aperitivo in the Piazzetta, Capri’s famous main square.
Chill out at Positano Spiaggia
Positano Spiaggia is possibly one of the world’s most famous beaches, in part owing to the gorgeous backdrop of pastel-hued houses that dot the hills beyond the beach. Travellers from around the world flock to the beach, not only to kick back and enjoy the gorgeous Amalfi weather, but also to grab a Gram-worthy snap of them chilling at this most wonderful beach.
Limoncello tastings!
The Amalfi Coast is the home of tart limoncello liqueur, and travellers can take part in tastings of this delicious beverage made where it originated. Tours operate regularly and teach you all about the making of this local favourite!
