| Page Views: 391 Last Visit to Amalfi: November, 2006 | Amalfi! To see the beauty of the Amalfi Coast! by angiebabe - last update: Nov 20, 2006 |
The Amalfi coast started for me when i left my friends at Avellino and found my way onto the bus to Salerno, spent a few hours there - starting with the view of the coastline and pics from the marina area with the coastline and mountains behind that i was to see for the next 3 days. Arrived in Amalfi at about 7pm in the dark but quite afew people around and there were lots of lights on of the many buildings i could see layered up the hills in the dark. The imperative was to find the bus to the San Lazzaro hostel - i was too exhausted actually to stay any longer than finding the first bus out - and i had to contact the hostel again as to which bus to catch - she had replied yes to my question was it the bus to ravello that i was to catch to her hostel! until i couldnt find san lazzaro on my map. then got into a conversation with a willys info tout. but off i went up the wild and winding road 45 minutes up (up, up and up!) to Agerola-San Lazzaro. |

|  | Do the walk back from Ravello to Atrani A great way to see the sights - following on from the best sights over the Amalfi coast from Ravello - the walk all the way downhill until Atrani has loads to see! Watch your steps though - theres lots of them! And then arriving at Atrani at the bottom of the descent you wind your way through the village streets and out onto the beach - fisherman were there fixing their nets and then the view i got from the ascent back on up towards Amalfi was another lovely vision - including a rainbow. |

| Pros: | "It is a truly one of the best coastal sights!, town perched on the sides of steep hills with loads of character in the buildings, hugely scenic from the hills above" | | Cons: | "no lights in the phone booths!," |

starship Tue Jul 22, 2008 19:02 UTC Your photos are so terrific that I'd love to see Amalfi, Capri, etc. Your tip on the lemon theme reminds me of Sorrento, but I couldn't help focusing in on those fantastic postcards in the picture accompanying your tip! | hindu1936 Sat Jul 12, 2008 11:52 UTC as expected, you provide more information than the usual "it is beautiful, go there" and it is this information such as bus schedules, fees, etc. that keeps me looking for your tips. thanks | alancollins Mon Jun 23, 2008 17:39 UTC Its over 25 years since I've been to this beautiful part of the world. Unfortunately the windy roads caused a lot of car sickness with the daughters. | Toshioohsako Sat Apr 5, 2008 17:03 UTC Amalfi seems a beautiful coast. It seems alright to visit in any season. |
