Thirty a long way of jaw-dropping magnificence: this remains one of the most dramatic and thrilling stretches of coastline in Europe regardless of the ever-increasing amounts of visitors. John Steinbeck published of the Amalfi Shoreline, "It really is a aspiration place that's not quite real if you are there." The picturesque villages clinging to utter mountainsides that drop into turquoise waters are certainly a dazzling sight that you can scarcely consider, and that you'll never forget. The spectacular landscapes provided by the Lattari limestone cliffs and the terraced groves and vineyards, is further increased by the multi-colored, tiled domes of the churches that sophistication these picture-postcard tourist resorts, and the white sails of pleasure ships skimming along the shore lines. In his Decameron, Boccaccio identified this region as "the only real delectable part of Italy, filled with towns, backyards, springs and rich men." This is perhaps truer today than previously. The isolation of Amalfi and encircling villages prompted a decrease in economical importance and society which has only recently revived, through the development of the cliff-top highway linking the region to Naples and Salerno, and the development of tourism. For those who do opt to make the Amalfi Shoreline the base for his or her visit to the region, there is enough diversity in the several resorts here to suit everyone.

Ravello, nestling in the hillsides above, is unequalled for romance and style. This guide tell you everything you need to know about this unforgettable area and how to see it fully.
