Sorrento Peninsula

Travel Guide

Marina Grande (big), Sorrento, Italy
Marina Grande (big), Sorrento, Italy
Painted majolica on the walls of the city of Vietri sul mare. All the colors of the Amalfi Coast, the sea’s deep deep blue, the striking green forests and the golden orange of the citrus groves seem to meet up in Vietri, particularly in the glazes and decorations of this gorgeous Campanian town’s beautiful ceramics, produced since 1600.Named as UNESCO World Heritage in 1997, along with the rest of the Amalfi Coast, this community not far from Salerno was struck on a splendid site amidst hills and sea.
Amalfi has to be lived in to be fully understood, frequenting the winding paths along the alley-ways, up the step steps that lead to the higher part of the town, between the pastel- coloured houses that seem to hang suspended but are set into the rocks.
Stunning swimming hole on the coast of Sorrento. There is a cave/hole in the rocks for you to swim through which brings you out into the sea. With its crystal clear waters, this was one of my favourite places to have enjoyed.
