One day itinerary in Amalfi
If you're wondering what to do in Amalfi, Italy, you're not alone. The town was once a mighty maritime republic. Amalfi Cruises offers trips to Capri, where you can visit the famed Blue Grotto. There are also trips to Paestum, home to the ancient Greek temple ruins.
Visiting the Emerald Grotto
One of the most popular tourist attractions along the Amalfi Coast is the Emerald Grotto. This amazing natural wonder lies below the famous Conca dei Marini beach. It's filled with turquoise water and glows with emerald-green light when the sun filters through its underground opening. You can even see a beautiful underwater nativity scene!
The Emerald Grotto is a natural cave formation which blends the characteristics of an inland grotto and a marine grotto. The cave wasn't submerged until around 6000 years ago and stalactites and stalagmites were formed by the slow drips of water. Once the sea level rose, the area filled with water. This unique underwater feature is famous for the nativity scene which attracts scuba divers and tourists alike.
Hiking through the deep valley named for the medieval foundries
The rocky, scenic mountains surrounding Amalfi provide an excellent backdrop for hiking through the deep valley. Hikers can enjoy the tranquility of the countryside, with the crunch of gravel underfoot and the sound of birds. A section of the route leads to the remains of a 13th-century convent, which was built above the coastline and nestled amongst oaks and pine trees.
The deep valley named for the medieval foundries in the Amalfi area is home to a variety of plants and animals. The Valle dei Mulini is one such example, with a walking trail that takes visitors through ancient water powered mills. This ancient paper making industry was a thriving part of the city's economy, and this trail is a wonderful way to experience the town's rich history.
Visiting the Museum of Tarsia Lignea
Visiting the Museum of Tarsia lignea in Amalfi is a great way to learn about the history of the area. It is open daily from 8am to 12:30pm. The museum offers guided tours, which will give you a better understanding of the city. You can also visit the Correale Museum, which contains artifacts from the city's past.
This museum is a mix of a museum and a workshop. Visitors can learn about the history of marquetry and see examples of the ancient Sorrento style. The museum also sells a variety of inlaid wooden items.
Visiting Positano
Positano is a charming town on the Amalfi Coast, south of Naples. It can be easily reached by taxi or by bus. The town's architecture is a marvel, perched on the steep slopes of the mountains. You'll find pastel-painted houses stacked high on top of each other. The town's heyday was in the 16th century.
There are frequent bus services connecting Sorrento and Positano. There are also frequent ferries that run between the towns. The SITA bus, which travels along the coast, also stops in Positano and Praiano. Alternatively, you can take a train from Naples to Salerno, which takes about 40 minutes. You can also take a private transfer from one town to another, which may cost more.
Visiting Sorrento
If you want to experience the best of the Amalfi Coast, a base in Sorrento is ideal. This coastal town offers the perfect blend of history and nature. It is easy to get to, and there are several options for getting around the town. However, keep in mind that Sorrento is a popular tourist destination, and you may encounter some crowds.
Sorrento has been ruled by the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, French, Spanish, and Turks, and you can still feel the Spanish influence in the town's architecture and dialect. Several buildings in Sorrento are in the late Byzantine and Arab style, and you can enjoy the town's famous Caprese almond cake.
