Why Positano matters
Positano is the picture on every Amalfi Coast postcard: coloured houses stacked up a steep hillside with the sea at the bottom. There are no big sights, only steps, boutiques, bougainvillea and views, which is exactly the point. Wander down to the beach, take a boat to nearby coves and treat the trip as a slow, glamorous break. It is expensive and busy in high season, so book ahead.
Talking points
- Houses climb the cliffside in a cascade of pastel colours.
- You get around on stairs, so wear comfortable shoes.
- Boats run along the coast to hidden coves and nearby towns.
- Summer weekends are crowded; spring and autumn are calmer.
