This is a must read for anyone wanting to avoid the traffic along the Amalfi Coast, while still travelling to Positano. Touring the Amalfi Coast is now much easier with the Metrò Del Mare, whose services have been developed further recently. The network now covers the entire Naples Gulf and that of Salerno, taking in the major towns along the way.

From the map above you can see the extensive network with stops including Capri, Sorrento, Positano, Cilento, Salerno and others. Some day and weekend tickets are available, meaning we can all enjoy the Amalfi Coast without sitting in traffic or desperately trying to find a parking space.

Reaching the two port destinations of Mergellina and Beverello from Naples, it’s better to take public transport, given the distance from the station. Molo Manfredi in Salerno, however, is close to the train station and can be reached on foot. See the Amalfi Coast metro site for more details, including timetables.

We’re not really in the times when splurging on holidays is recommended, but if you want to save the economy, then spending a little extra could be what keeps things afloat. So if you have some extra cash and are planning a vacation in Italy, try the Santa Caterina hotel on the Amalfi Coast.

The most famous thing about this luxury hotel is its breathtaking views and natural terraces that snake down to the sea. This beautiful path is truly unique, passing among citrus orchards and gardens down to facilities that include an ocean pool, solarium, gym and open air bar and restaurant.

The hotel has undergone restoration work, preserving the original architecture, along with five star comfort and luxury. You can see the amazing view from all of the hotel’s balconies, and other features include a sophisticated dining room, large rooms with open spaces and plenty of light, and beautiful room decorations in sumptuous materials.
