Positano is the iconic Amalfi Coast village with colorful houses cascading down steep cliffs. Famous for Marina Grande beach, the Santa Maria Assunta church with its colorful dome, and boutiques selling linen clothing and sandals. Was a quiet fishing village until the 1950s when artists and writers discovered it.
Village access free. Parking expensive (up to EUR 10/hour). Take ferry from Sorrento/Amalfi to avoid
Mid-April to June or September to mid-October for pleasant weather without peak crowds. Avoid July-August (extreme crowds, heat, traffic restrictions on SS163).
