Positano, Italy

Positano is a small town on the Amalfi Coast in Campania, Italy. It is known as the town of stairs, its small houses, all huddling on top of each other, form the subject of endless photos. The hills offer superb views and there are beautiful beaches to visit; the Marina and the Spiaggia Grande beach, which are at the foot of the town and the smaller Fornillo and Porta di Arienzo beaches on either side.

Positano also has many beautiful boutiques to wander around which show the original styles favoured in this area. At the heart of the town is the S.Maria Assunta Church with its amazingly coloured dome which is steps away from the sea. At night it’s like a fairytale village with the lights twinkling on the hills.
