The Amalfi Coast is one of Italy's most scenic destinations where mountains plunge into the sea in a nail-biting vertical scene of steep cliffs, cliff-clinging homes and green woodland. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a 50-kilometer stretch of coastline along the southern edge of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula, in the Campania region. It’s a popular holiday destination, with small beaches and pastel-colored fishing villages. The Amalfi Coast offers enough idyllic beauty and Italian luxury for a standalone trip. Driving its winding seaside roads will take you to charming coastal towns, scenic beaches, villas and gardens, and some of the best hotels in the world. The coast and the 13 seaside towns that call it home are all connected via the SS163 highway, considered one of the most scenic drives in the world. Each town comes equipped with signature Amalfi topography, as well as standout attributes of its own.
