Beautiful Amalfi Coast - Sorrento, Positano & Amalfi

Today was a big one—our first time visiting Positano and the famous Amalfi Coast! This region is easily one of the most iconic spots in all of Italy (maybe even the world), so it’s definitely been high on our bucket list.


Back in 2012, I visited Capri with my mum and couldn’t help but wonder how this would compare… Turns out, it’s a totally different vibe!

We had an early start and hopped on a local bus to make our way along the coast. Even though it’s only about 31–32 km on the map, it ended up taking nearly two hours, thanks to some traffic and the winding roads. The route is absolutely stunning—but also very twisty and narrow in places. I started to feel a bit queasy along the way. 😅


Despite the rocky start, we were excited to finally arrive and explore this dreamy stretch of coastline!


Walking around the waterfront.... 





Lunch was definitely one of the highlights of this trip. I had an amazing pasta dish called Scialatielli (with clams and zucchini served with garlic olive oil and datterini tomatoes)—so delicious! Easily the best pasta I’ve had in Italy on this trip.

Gelato!



And more walking around the town....... 






Great day exploring the Amalfi coast :-)
