Positano
Positano is vertical: stairs, terraces and bright façades turning towards the Tyrrhenian Sea. Its beauty is undeniable, but the secret to enjoying it is to plan around the geography.

The long way around
Explore the upper lanes before descending towards the sea; the return journey involves steep steps.
Where to base yourself
A sea-view hotel can be tempting, but stair access and luggage logistics deserve equal attention.
When to go
May and late September are gentler than the busiest midsummer weeks.
Ferries, buses and private transfers each have weather or traffic considerations.
Dates and access rules can change. Check the organiser before making non-refundable plans.
