Sorrento Italy

Actually, it's currently under renovation. The locals told us that they only work for 8 months a year and work 8 days a week 😭. The best season of the year is from April to November. This time there are no sea activities, and not a single restaurant that we want to eat at is open. However, the transportation is worrying 😔 What will it be like during peak season? 🤔️ Almafi can take a train from Napoli to Sorrento and transfer to a bus. Because it's a rugged coastline, it's easy to get carsick. Although each small town is not far away, it is recommended to stay in Sorrento or find a cliffside hotel with a sea view.

Lazy Southern European Summer Tour | Amalfi Coast of Italy The south of Italy has a distinctly different Italian style compared to other regions. The sunshine, air, culture, seascapes, and streets easily touch your soft spot, making you fall in love to the point of no return. The Amalfi Coast is a paradise in southern Italy blessed by the goddess, with scenery so beautiful it brings tears to your eyes! It is known as 'The Path of the Gods.' The Amalfi Coast is one of the 50 most beautiful places in the world and, along with the Greek islands, is hailed as a 'heaven on earth.' Along the 50-kilometer coastline, there are 08 colorful small towns of various sizes, each so beautiful it seems surreal. On the sunny Amalfi Coast, everything is as vibrant as blooming flowers, and just standing on the balcony looking at the sea can indulge someone for an entire day. No matter how downcast you are, you can find the courage to believe again, just like the protagonist in 'Under the Tuscan Sun.' During the peak of summer, Amalfi is synonymous with romance. Driving on the winding mountain roads, you will not only enjoy the colorful towns but also smell the lemon scent that fills the entire city. The town of Sorrento, located at the western gateway to the Amalfi Coast, is also known as the Lemon Town, with many lemon orchards in the town. Here you can order a bowl of lemon ice cream or a glass of limoncello. Of course, there are also various lemon tours. With only about 16,000 residents, the town hosts an average of 500 weddings each year. Almost every day, wedding boats complete their ceremonies in this town.

On Easter day, the weather forecast said it would rain, but it turned out to be sunny. How lucky! When the sun was out, it instantly felt like summer. The lemons on the roadside haven't fully bloomed yet, so I could only take pictures of the ones on the tree in scattered shops. If you don't eat or swim 🏊‍♀️, you can explore the small town in two hours. You just need to keep climbing stairs, which can be a bit tiring since it's all mountain roads. Here are some transportation tips. I took the L21 to Sorrento from Naples train station (buy tickets at the manual window at the end of the underground floor of the station, next to the entrance, ask staff if unsure, timetable can be viewed on Google Maps). Then, as soon as you come out of the Sorrento train station, you can see the bus stop for Positano, because the bus will be parked there or many people will be queuing there. There are ticket booths at both ends of the train station. I don't know if Easter in southern Italy counts as peak season, but I queued up early in the morning at around 8 o'clock and didn't get on the bus until after 9 o'clock! So make sure to arrive at the site earlier than your estimated departure time to queue up. There are really a lot of people and the bus is not big enough. If you go up later, you will have to stand the whole way, which will be very painful for people who get carsick. The driver's driving is also very dizzying (the European girl next to me vomited all the way... For the return trip, you can buy the bus ticket at the stores marked with "sta", or pay online after boarding the bus. If you want to stay longer in Southern Italy, you can live in Sorrento. This small town is also very beautiful and chill. I love Southern Italy and I want to stay here for a while in the future.
