Piano di Sorrento Vacation Rental apartment: Piano di Sorrento

Description of the area: The wild and rocky Amalfi coast is full of sharp stones and pinnacles and declines towards the sea. Using these stones and pinnacles, the hand of man has for centuries obtained, the terracing upon which the people of Amalfi lie (they look like they hang onto the cliffs) along with a series of terraces with olive, citrus and vine trees. The trip from Positano to Amalfi offers vast panoramas including a beautiful panorama of the island of Capri. One of the most characteristic fjords found along the Amalfi Coast is the Vallone di Praia, a fjord that can be descended by following a path formed by rock and arriving at a gracious little beach with a limpid and not yet contaminated sea.

Excursions & places to visit: POSITANO The splendid gorge in which Positano is found, can be reached from the ‘Nastro Azzurro’ (main road 163). On the road trip, one can admire beautiful landscape. The roads are very windy with tight curves that follow the course of the mountain and wedge into the rocks. Along the last stretch you come to a panoramic viewpoint from which you can see the picturesque town. Positano consists of a group of white, pink and orange houses with spherical caps that decline towards the sea, connected by alleys and narrow staircases. CAPRI This is one of the most famous pearls of the Tyranean Sea . It was once the residence of roman emperors including Tiberio and Augusto. Today, the so-called ‘piazzetta’ is a meeting place for artisans and famous people from all over the world. From the top of Mount Solaro one can see the whole island including its rocks that stretch out and the delightful vegetation that declines towards the deep blue sea.

SORRENTO: Sorrento is a town with less than 18,000 inhabitants and is found in a magnificent geographical and environmental location on a tuff terrace that falls upon the coast with rocky slopes. It is a very pleasant place with natural landscape and enriched by its prosperous citrus cultures, by the vast panorama of the Gulf of Naples , the Vesuvio and the Campi Flegrei and the Flegrei islands, the extraordinary seafaring transparencies and an exceptionally clear blue sky. All of the above make the city one of the sanctuaries of international tourism.
