Amalfi Coast 
The Amalfi Coast is undoubtedly one of the most romantic places in the world, with its breathtaking views, colorful houses, and the sound of waves and constant “scent” of the sea just steps away, in short, the ideal place for a romantic getaway… and why not on Valentine’s Day?
While it’s true that many accommodations and businesses are not operating during this time of year, it’s also the perfect moment for those who wish to experience a truly relaxed visit, without traffic and mass tourism, allowing guests to discover the authentic character of each village.
The key is planning: every town on the Coast ensures that some accommodations and restaurants remain open year-round, albeit in very limited numbers (read the article Winter in Amalfi Coast). Just consult the official lists from various municipalities and contact your chosen facilities directly.
So what to do once you arrive on the Coast? Our advice is to rent a small car independently and embark on a tour along the entire coastline, admiring its beauty and taking advantage of photo opportunities at the most romantic spots! On this note, here’s a small “driving guide” for the coast: Rent a car on the Amalfi Coast.
Well, you’re in the car and ready to discover these magnificent places! Here’s a list of the best spots along the Coast for taking truly romantic photos.
- Positano’s Main Beach (Spiaggia Grande), perhaps the most famous image of the entire Amalfi Coast, where you can capture perfect photos at the foot of Positano’s iconic “pyramid” of houses or turn toward the sea to admire the enchanting Li Galli archipelago.
- The Square of San Gennaro Church in Praiano offers an unmatched panorama stretching from Positano to Nerano, reaching Capri with its famous Faraglioni rocks, and extending to the Li Galli islands! If you have a small drone, this is the perfect spot to capture the colorful mosaic design that adorns the entire square!
- The Furore Fjord, one of the coast’s most famous spots due to its “Nordic” nature, featuring a small beach and characteristic houses called “monazemi”, a place that makes you fall in love and has become the love nest of two great stars of Italian cinema: Anna Magnani and Roberto Rossellini!
- The Amalfi Cathedral (officially the Church of Saint Andrew), a magnificent triumph of art featuring pointed arches and golden mosaics. Don’t miss the chance to explore its stunning interior!
- Villa Cimbrone and Villa Rufolo in Ravello, the two most important villas in this medieval town, boasting fragrant gardens, characteristic cloisters, and incomparable viewpoints like the “Infinity Terrace” (Terrazza dell’Infinito) at Villa Cimbrone.
- Vietri sul Mare and its kaleidoscope of colors, with artisan workshops, vibrant houses, local ceramic decorations, and colorful alleyways!
- Finally, weather permitting (check Weather in the Amalfi Coast), don’t miss the famous “Path of the Gods” (Sentiero degli Dei) connecting the upper part of Positano to Bomerano in Agerola: from here, you’ll enjoy truly heavenly views from a position that seems suspended between sky and sea!
Last tip: Experience the true magic of the coast, its people, flavors and tranquility… an atmosphere that makes this place even more romantic!
