   Li Galli

   Pass by

   Navigate toward Li Galli, a legendary archipelago rising from the deep blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, just off the Amalfi Coast. According to ancient Greek mythology, these rocky islets were believed to be the home of the Sirens, the enchanting creatures whose irresistible songs lured sailors to their doom. It was here, legend says, that Ulysses (Odysseus) famously resisted their spell by having himself bound to the mast of his ship, while his crew sealed their ears with wax. Today, Li Galli retains an aura of mystery and timeless beauty. The archipelago consists of three small islands—Gallo Lungo, La Castelluccia, and La Rotonda—their dramatic cliffs and crystal-clear waters creating a striking contrast against the horizon. Steeped in myth, history, and natural splendor, Li Galli continues to captivate visitors, offering a place where ancient legends and Mediterranean beauty seamlessly intertwine.

3. 3

   Amalfi

   1h

   Arrive in Amalfi, a town that feels like an open-air museum, where narrow medieval streets unfold toward the lively main square. Towering above it all is the majestic Cathedral of Sant’Andrea (Duomo di Amalfi), a striking blend of Arab-Norman, Byzantine, and Baroque styles. Its grand staircase and ornate façade immediately catch the eye, while inside lie the relics of Saint Andrew the Apostle, making it an important pilgrimage site. Amalfi was once a powerful Maritime Republic, rivaling Venice and Genoa, and its legacy is still visible in the town’s architecture and traditions. Just steps away from the square, you’ll find hidden alleys, historic paper mills—Amalfi was famous for producing handmade paper as early as the 13th century—and small cafés where the scent of lemon delights fills the air, a tribute to the region’s iconic sfusato amalfitano lemons.

4. 4

   Conca dei Marini

   30min

   Pass by some of the most breathtaking views along the coast, including the picturesque village of Conca dei Marini, perched between sea and sky. This small fishing hamlet is home to the famous Emerald Grotto (Grotta dello Smeraldo), a natural sea cave discovered in the 1930s, renowned for its extraordinary emerald-green glow. Sunlight filters through an underwater opening, illuminating the crystal-clear water and creating magical reflections on the cave’s stalactites. Inside, you’ll even find a submerged ceramic nativity scene, a unique and unexpected detail that adds to the grotto’s charm and mystique.

5. 5

   Fiordo di Furore

   30min

   Sail toward the Fiordo di Furore, near Praiano, one of the most striking and unexpected natural wonders of the Amalfi Coast. This dramatic fjord, carved over centuries by the force of water and time, cuts deep into the limestone cliffs, creating a narrow inlet where turquoise waters shimmer beneath towering rocky walls. Above, the iconic arched bridge spans the gorge, framing the scene with a sense of scale and quiet grandeur. Hidden from view along the main coastal road, the Fiordo di Furore feels like a secret place, untouched and timeless. At its base lies a small, picturesque pebble beach, embraced by steep cliffs and cooled by the shadows they cast throughout the day. The contrast between the rugged rock formations, the vivid colors of the sea, and the traditional fishermen’s houses clinging to the cliffs makes this spot unforgettable—a perfect blend of raw nature, history, and coastal charm.

   Positano

Cascading vertically down the steep hillside, Positano is renowned for its pastel-colored houses, dramatic stairways, and narrow, winding streets that weave between boutiques, cafés, and artisan shops. Overlooking the deep blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, the town offers breathtaking panoramic views at every turn, with the contrast between sea, sky, and vibrant architecture creating an unforgettable scene. Once a quiet fishing village and now a symbol of Mediterranean elegance, Positano embodies a perfect balance of charm, culture, and seaside beauty, making it an essential highlight of any journey along the coast.
