If you love beaches as much as we do, then don’t miss a visit to Maiori. Here you can enjoy a cooling dip in its deep blue waters and sunbathe – a little tricky since the sky-reaching hills tend to shade the place during most parts of the day. One of its star attractions is the small beach found at the foot of the rugged hills. History shows that this was less of a town and more of a fortress occupied by few locals.

But it’s all worth it once you witness it. To get to this rustic-looking stoic town, you have to take the Campania coastal road – which includes zig-zag trails and gut-twisting turns. If you visit in August, you can witness the festival this town holds to honour this delicious treat. It would be a crime to leave Conca de’ Marini without trying the Santa Rosa sfogliatella – a sweet baked good only found here. Visit the famous Emerald Grotto (Grotta dello Smeraldo) – partly submerged in the ocean, with a whimsical green glow which you can explore on a guided boat ride.
