8 Things You Absolutely Cannot Miss in Positano, Amalfi in Italy

Heading to the Amalfi Coast and looking for the best things to do in Positano or wondering what to do in Amalfi Coast? In the off chance that you are not tired of hearing about my undying love for Positano Italy, I’m back for the latest edition of 8 Things You Absolutely Cannot Miss!

Because I find those “100 things to do in [enter popular destination name]” posts to be terribly unhelpful, I started this series as a way to help y’all narrow down your likely long list of things to do in some of my favorite places. Because you want a helpful Positano travel guide not just a list of everything you could do there, right?! Right.

For those of you who are new here, ciao! My name is Christie (click here if you want to stalk my Instagram) and I started visiting Positano in the summer of 2015. It was an unusually hot summer that year and it was a girls trip. There were four of us. I instantly fell madly in love with basically everything Positano and the Amalfi Coast towns have to offer — the dramatic landscapes, the food, and especially the people.

Right off the bat I developed close friendships with some incredibly lovely people who were born and raised in Positano. Seven years later I still keep in touch with many of them, some on an almost daily basis, and even travel to other cities to meet up with them.

But most of all I return to Positano as often as I can because no matter how many times I visit it is never enough. As John Steinbeck says, “Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone”. And bites deep it does!

One of the many perks of having close local friends is that even on years I’m not able to make it back to Positano, I have direct access to all of the best Positano info. Info that I can then relay back to you all! So basically you have close local Positano friends now, too.

And who knows better about the best things to do in Positano than a handful of people born and raised there? No one!

So, of all the things there are to do in the world’s most beautiful town, Positano Italia, and the things to do in Amalfi Coast, here are 8 things you cannot miss:
