Practical guide
Know before you go
Short, straight answers to the questions every Amalfi visitor asks before booking.
The sweet-spot months
May, June and September bring warm seas, sunny skies and slightly thinner crowds than peak summer — ideal for boat tours.
Spring (Apr–Jun)
Mild, green and blooming, with comfortable temperatures and the sea warming up by June.
Summer (Jul–Aug)
Hot, sunny and very busy, with the warmest sea but the biggest crowds and highest prices — book well ahead.
Autumn (Sep–Oct)
Warm sea, golden light and easing crowds make September one of the very best times to visit.
Winter (Nov–Mar)
Quiet and cooler, with many boat tours and businesses closed; some villages feel sleepy out of season.
Boat-tour season
Boat tours run roughly April to October, with the calmest, warmest seas in summer and early autumn.
One day
A coastal boat tour and Positano.
Two days
Add a day trip to Capri.
Three days
Add Pompeii or a cooking class.
Foodies
Add cooking classes and lemon tours.
Couples
Add private boats and sunset cruises.
Explorers
Add Ravello, Amalfi town and hiking.
By boat
Ferries and boat tours are the most scenic and often fastest way to hop between coastal villages in summer.
Tours & transfers
Guided tours and private transfers spare you the stress of the narrow, winding coastal road and parking.
SITA buses
Local SITA buses link the coastal towns affordably, though they can be crowded and slow in peak season.
On foot
The villages are steep with many steps; comfortable shoes are essential, and Positano is best explored on foot.
Avoid driving in summer
The coastal road is narrow, busy and hard to park — most visitors prefer boats, buses or tours.
Getting there
Naples is the gateway, around 1–1.5 hours away by road or ferry via Sorrento or Salerno.
Euro & cards
Italy uses the euro; cards are widely accepted, but carry some cash for small cafés, beaches and buses.
Book boat tours ahead
Popular small-group and Capri boat tours sell out in summer — reserve well in advance.
See it from the sea
A boat tour gives the best views and access to coves the busy road can’t reach.
Pack for steps
The villages are steep and stair-filled, so wear comfortable shoes and travel light.
Visit shoulder season
May, June and September offer warm seas with fewer crowds than peak August.
Taste the lemons
Don’t miss limoncello, lemon granita and the giant Amalfi lemons behind them.
Capri boat tours
Day trips to Capri sell out in summer — book ahead.
Small-group cruises
Popular coastal boat tours fill up — reserve early.
Sunset cruises
Romantic golden-hour cruises are in demand — book ahead.
Cooking classes
Hands-on clifftop classes have limited places — reserve early.
Private boats
Private charters book up in high season — reserve well ahead.
Summer peaks
July and August are extremely busy — plan early.
Coastal boat tour
Around €60–120 for a shared small-group boat day with swim stops.
Capri day trip
About €90–180 for a boat tour to Capri from the coast.
Sunset cruise
Roughly €50–100 for an evening cruise with Prosecco.
Cooking class
Around €70–130 for a hands-on class with a meal.
Private boat charter
About €400–1,000+ per boat depending on size and duration.
How to save
