The Neapolitan Riviera is one of the most spectacular stretches of coastline in Italy, and an idyllic holiday spot that has remained popular over many centuries. Stretching along the coast of Campania, the Neapolitan Riviera starts in Sorrento – a bustling town with lively bars and restaurants as well as a scenic beauty with dramatic views over the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Head further south we see the iconic towns of the Amalfi Coast: steep-stepped Positano clinging to tall cliffs; Amalfi with its whitewashed villas, fishermen’s dwellings, merchant town houses and luxury hotels that overlook sapphire seas; and beautiful Ravello, whose lofty setting commands inspirational views.
