Amalfi Coast Holidays
Amalfi Coast holidays offer plenty of picturesque towns and resorts set against breathtaking scenery, on one of the most famous stretches of coastline in Europe. Running south from Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast stretches along the Bay of Salerno, and encompasses the towns of Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Minori, Maiori and Salerno itself. A combination of stunning coastal views, wonderful Mediterranean climate and charming resorts, served up with the delicious regional cuisine, helps Amalfi Coast holidays remain as popular as ever.
Holidays on the Amalfi Coast - Famed for its' breathtaking and spectacular coastline
Stretching over 70km, the Amalfi coastline is beautifully dramatic, with craggy coves and rocky inlets, all surrounded by stunning flora such as orange, lemon and olive groves, vineyards and colourful bougainvillea. The legendary Amalfi Drive, which holidays on the Amalfi Coast are most famous for, takes travellers on a hair-raising trip, with the winding road twisting precariously along the edge of the mountains, past towns clinging to the rocks, terraced gardens and bright bays dotting the shoreline. Visitors to the Amalfi Coast are rewarded with spectacular views out across the sparkling Mediterranean and delights around every corner. Amalfi Coast holidays offer visitors picturesque resorts to stay in, from the popular town of Amalfi, a former fishing village now home to a lively waterfront, to the quiet and refined Ravello, boasting some spectacular gardens and the best views on the coast. Whilst on holiday on the Amalfi Coast, don't miss a trip to the picture-postcard town of Positano, full of charm and romance with its' pastel coloured houses perched on the cliff face, cosmopolitan waterfront cafes and bars and elegant shops. For beach lovers, Amalfi holidays also feature the family-friendly resort of Maiori, home to a long sandy beach, and the beautiful islands of Capri and Ischia.
