Positano Holidays

Among the Amalfi Coast’s most popular spots, Positano holidays promise a picturesque setting. The village’s steep hillside is lined with an array of pretty houses in pastel colours, punctuated by elegant domed churches overlooking the beach, and the town is a magnet for stylish travellers. A major shipping port until the 19th century, Positano’s fortunes dwindled until its exceptional beauty began to attract the attention of holidaymakers.

Home to one of the region’s longest beaches, the Spiaggia Grande, today Positano is a glamorous resort town, yet retains much of its original character. Restaurants serve excellent local cuisine, and the boutiques are full of treats drawing on the region’s famous lemon production. Sunbathing and swimming are top of most visitors’ lists on holidays to Positano, but there’s an unmissable church and town museum, as well as expeditions into the surrounding countryside on offer. For a glamorous Amalfi Coast holiday, Positano is the quintessential destination.
