Naples
Naples sits on a 15-kilometre semicircular bay, with Mount Vesuvius rising 1,281 metres directly behind the city and the islands of Capri, Ischia, and Procida arrayed across the gulf. The harbour holds three working ports — Molo Beverello for ferries, Mergellina for charter yachts, and the new megayacht basin at the Stazione Marittima. The seafront Castel dell'Ovo, built on a small islet, is the visual centre of the bay. Behind the waterfront, the dense medieval Spaccanapoli quarter holds the cathedral, Sansevero Chapel, and the pizza tradition the city invented in the 1700s. Naples is 90 minutes from Capri and 3 hours from Positano. Season runs April through October.
Procida
Procida is the smallest of the three Phlegrean islands in the Bay of Naples — and the most photographed for its pastel-stacked fishing harbour. Marina Corricella is a wall of yellow, pink, and ochre houses tumbling down to a working boat harbour, with no road access and only a stepped path connecting it to the upper village. The island has stayed authentic: Italian families come here for the food (Procida lemon ricotta cake, fresh sea urchin) rather than the scene. Procida was Italy's 2022 Capital of Culture. The island is 30 minutes from Ischia and an hour from Naples. Season runs April through October.
Ischia
Ischia is the largest of the Bay of Naples islands and the volcanic heart of the chain — the entire 46-square-kilometre island sits on top of Mount Epomeo, a dormant volcano whose thermal springs emerge in dozens of public and private spa parks. The eastern coast at Ischia Porto holds the Aragonese Castle, a 5th-century-BC fortress connected to the main island by a 220-metre stone causeway. The southern village of Sant'Angelo sits car-free on a peninsula, with mineral-rich beaches and pastel houses. Ischia is 90 minutes from Capri and 30 from Procida. Season runs April through October.
Capri
Capri rises from the Tyrrhenian Sea as a single limestone block — 6 square kilometres of sheer cliff broken only by two small ports at Marina Grande and Marina Piccola. The island's signature features are the three Faraglioni rock spires off the southeast coast and the Blue Grotto on the northwest, where boats row in through a 1-metre cave opening to a chamber where sunlight refracts the water electric blue. Above the cliffs, Capri Town and Anacapri hold designer boutiques, lemon granita stands, and the Villa Jovis ruins where Emperor Tiberius retired in 27 AD. Capri is 90 minutes from Sorrento. Season runs April through October.
Li Galli Isles
Li Galli is a tiny archipelago of three privately owned islets off the Amalfi Coast, between Positano and Capri — known in Homer's Odyssey as the home of the Sirens, the creatures whose song lured sailors to their deaths. The main islet, Gallo Lungo, was bought by ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev in 1989 and remains a private estate now owned by his foundation. Boats cannot land on the islets but anchor offshore in 8-15 metres of deep blue water with clear visibility to the rocky bottom. The geological shape — three rocks arranged like a flying dolphin — gives the islets their other name, "the dolphins." Li Galli is 30 minutes from Positano. Season runs April through October.
Positano
Positano is the most photographed village on the Amalfi Coast — a vertical cascade of pastel houses cut into a near-vertical cliff face, accessible by only one road that ends 100 metres above the harbour. The village is built around Spiaggia Grande, a black-sand beach lined with restaurants and the unmistakable majolica-domed church of Santa Maria Assunta. Boats anchor offshore and dinghy in; mooring is impossible at the working harbour. The Path of the Gods footpath climbs from Positano to neighbouring Praiano along the cliff edge. Positano is 30 minutes from Amalfi Town and 60 from Capri. Season runs April through October.
Praiano
Praiano sits between Positano and Amalfi on the cliff-edge road, with the same architecture and views but a fraction of the visitors. The village splits in two: the upper Vettica Maggiore around the church square, and the lower Praiano on the cliffside above the small Marina di Praia beach. Just east, the Furore Fjord is the most photographed coastal feature on the Amalfi — a narrow 35-metre cleft in the cliff with a tiny beach at its head, spanned 30 metres above by a stone bridge that hosts an annual high-dive competition. Praiano is 15 minutes from Positano by sail. Season runs April through October.
Conca Dei Marini
Conca dei Marini is a peaceful and picturesque village on the Amalfi Coast. It's famous for its stunning sea views, historic sites, and the beautiful Fiordo di Furore, a fjord that's one of the most photographed spots in the region.
Serene Beauty
This village is nestled on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, offering breathtaking vistas. Its white houses and lush gardens blend seamlessly with the natural landscape, creating a tranquil and beautiful setting.
Emerald Grotto
One of Conca dei Marini's main attractions is the Grotta dello Smeraldo (Emerald Grotto), known for its emerald-green waters. Visitors can take a boat ride inside the cave to admire its natural beauty and sparkling waters.
Historical Charm
Conca dei Marini has a rich history, evident in its ancient churches and towers. The Santa Rosa Monastery is notable, not just for its architecture but also as the birthplace of the delicious Santa Rosa sfogliatella, a local pastry that visitors must try.
Quiet Beaches
The village's beaches are more secluded than those in busier Amalfi Coast towns, offering a peaceful escape. The small pebble beaches and clear waters are perfect for relaxing, swimming, and snorkeling.
Authentic Experience
Conca dei Marini provides an authentic Amalfi Coast experience, away from the crowds. Its charming streets, friendly locals, and traditional Italian cuisine make it a hidden gem for those seeking a genuine taste of Italian coastal life.
Amalfi
Amalfi is the quieter heart of the coast that carries its name. The Duomo rises above a small piazza where locals still drink espresso in the morning, and the backstreets open into lemon gardens and old paper mills running since the Middle Ages. From the water the town looks like a painting — colourful facades stacked into the hillside, framed by cliffs and lemon terraces. Slip into the Grotta dello Smeraldo nearby, where sunlight turns an underground cave emerald green, or find a quiet inlet along the cliffs for a swim with no one else around — and a short sail puts Positano, Ravello, and Capri within an easy day. The food is the reason to stay late — anchovy pasta at a harbour table, sfogliatella warm from the bakery, limoncello made from the cliff-side groves above. Season April through October; June and September dodge August crowds.
Sorrento
Sorrento sits on top of a 50-metre tuff cliff at the southern tip of the Bay of Naples, looking across to Vesuvius and Capri. The town's working harbour, Marina Grande, is reached from above by a staircase or a winding road; boats anchor in the bay or moor at the small marina. The 16th-century cliff-top town centre — Piazza Tasso — holds the orange and lemon groves that supply most of Italy's limoncello. Sorrento is the natural launching point for sails to Capri (60 minutes) and the Amalfi Coast (30 minutes to Positano). Season runs April through October.
