The town of Amalfi and his dramatic cliffs
The Amalfi Coast (Italian: Costiera Amalfitana) is home to 13 cities and towns, scattered like jewels along 55-kilometer coastline. It is located next to the Gulf of Salerno and washed by the waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Celebrated worldwide for its Mediterranean landscape and natural diversity, the Coast is named after the town of Amalfi, which makes up its main historical and political centre. The Amalfi Coast was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. Its natural beauties and its picturesque landscapes have made it, especially since the second post-war period, one of the favorite destinations of the world jet set, which is why it has earned it the nickname of “Divina Costiera“.
May and September are considered as the best months to visit the Amalfi Coast to avoid the summer heat and the crowds of tourists. Although it is quite a bit cooler than summer, you will still get a good amount of warm and sunny weather, which is perfect for exploring the local area’s attractions. The average high in the Amalfi Coast in May or September is between 20°C and 25°C, which is warm enough for you to spend the day relaxing in the sun.
Depending on the time you have available, you can choose to slowly explore the length of the coast over the span of a week or more, or spend a long weekend after or before visiting Naples.

Sorrento lemons are slightly rounder than the Amalfi ones, but both are PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) and equally sought-after. Amalfi lemons are large, sweet and juicy. The first time that lemons were cultivated on the Amalfi Coast was during the 11th century.
Like the Sorrento lemon, the Amalfi lemon is also versatile and can be used in different ways. It is ideal for drinks, liqueurs (including the renowned limoncello), ice creams and for flavoring cakes, creams and biscuits.
