Follow the famous Amalfi Coast and discover a host of picturesque villages and coastal gems. Set upon a long stretch of coastline between Positano and Amalfi, lies the peaceful town of Praiano. Spilling almost vertically down the terraced mountain to the clear blue sea, Praiano is a quaint town landscaped with typical Mediterranean white-washed houses, flowers and romantic little coves.
The ‘lost city’ of Paestum was once a thriving Greek colony and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site that boasts some beautifully preserved Doric temples that combine exquisite Roman and Greek architecture.
Nestled on a promontory lies the quaint village of Santa Maria di Castellabate which is characterised by outstanding natural beauty and dramatic coastal scenery. Explore the spectacular caves adorned with pre-historic stalagmites and stalactites and ancient hilltop towns in this area.
Further south lies the charming seaside resort of Palinuro which is renowned for its picturesque coastline, clear waters, pretty beaches and numerous caves.
Small Resorts of the Riviera Holiday Highlights
• Follow the ‘Sentiero degli Dei’ or ‘Walk of the Gods’ in Praiano – a fantastic hiking route that stretches from Praiano to Agerola and boasts superior views of the Amalfi coast.
• Between Praiano and Amalfi in the pretty bay of Conca dei Marini lies the enchanting Grotto dello Smerelda. This emerald grotto glows with the light of a kaleidoscope of blues and greens that are reflected from the ocean.
• Step back in time with a visit to Paestum’s ruins and explore beautifully preserved structures including the Tempio di Nettuno which dates back to 450 BC.
