2) Spend a day at the beach in Fornillo and our favorite place is Pupetto beach club. You can get to Fornillo beach very easily from Positano port by walking in just 5 minutes. This area is less crowded than the main beach. Another place not to be missed is Adolto beach club at Laurito beach, the restaurants serve amazing food and the sea water is crystal clear.

3) Take a boat tour or a sunset cruise along the Amalfi Coast and spend the day on the water to avoid the crowd. This is one of the best things to do in Positano as you’ll see the beauty of the coast from the sea relaxing and drinking prosecco or stopping by for lunch in any of the restaurants along the coast, or with a sunset tour you can enjoy an incredible sunset along the coast.

4) Hike the path of the Gods, you can do so in two ways. You can start the trail from Nocelle this is located in the upper part of Positano. You can get there by bus from Piazza dei Mulini or you can start from Bomerano which is located above Amalfi in the village of Agerola. to do the latter you need to get to Amalfi first by bus (SITA) and then change for another bus to Bomerano. Please note if you take the second option allow at least 2-3 hours of travelling. The path of the Gods is one of the most incredible hikes with insane views over the Amalfi Coast.

5) Take a scooter ride and visit all the villages along the coast. Doing so you can stop at the Fiordo di Furore along the way after Praiano, please note that the fiordo can be closed at time so make sure you do your research before travelling there.
