Main Towns We Visit

Positano- known as the pearl of the Amalfi Coast, is a small yet very famous tourist town. Positano can rightfully be called one of the most
picturesque towns on the Campania coast. The main part of the town is set on a mountain leading down to the sea. It was a prosperous port in the
16th and 17th centuries and started attracting tourists during the 1950's. It has become a very popular tourist attraction and has been featured in films
such as Only You and Underneath the Tuscan Sun. The town is embroidered by the narrow and often winding lanes and steps which cross it and is
dominated by the splendid dome covered in polychrome majolica of the church of San. Maria Assunta. You can find many small streets with hundreds
of boutiques. The famous American author John Steinback talks about Positano in his essay stating "it is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you
are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone."

Amalfi- set between the mountains and the sea, the larges town on the coast was formerly one of the Mediterranean's sea powers. It was the
capital of The Maritime Republic of Amalfi, and was a very important trading power in the Mediterranean between 839 and around 1200.
The famous duomo dominates the main square with large flights of stairs where you will find many foreigners that are getting married. Along this
pedestrian street are various bars and cafés, not to mention the many shops selling limoncello, clothing, swim wear, gifts, groceries and ceramics

Baia di Ieranto-is a long blue inlet with a small but marvelous beach where the legend states that the Sirens once played here.
The bay is owned by the Fondo per l'Ambiente Italiano (FAI), Italy's equivalent of the National Historic Landmarks Program and only 20 boat companies

Ravello- is famous for its breath-taking views, natural beauty and ancient monuments as well as their Ravello Music Festival. Ravello is located on
the small escarpment of Monte Lattari and is set amidst vast semi-tropical gardens and overlooks, from 350 metres, the coast south towards the
Gulf of Salerno, and the towns of Minori and Amalfi below.

Capri- is located 17 miles south of Naples and eight miles southwest of Sorrento and is accessible only by boat. Capri's most famous sight
is the Blue Grotta where the sunlight passes through an underwater cavity and shines through the seawater, creating a marvelous blue
reflection that illuminates the cavern.
About 8000 people live in Capri and 7000 in Anacapri. Capri is located on the eastern side of the island, Marina Grande is the port to the
North and Marina Piccola to the South. Anacapri is on the western side of the island and is separated from Capri by the slopes of Mount
Solaro.
