John Steinbeck once said, “Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone.” And I have to agree – from the moment you first catch sight of the views from the Amalfi Coast, you’ll have to pinch yourself to make sure it’s real. Photos and videos simply can’t do it justice. It’s the prettiest, most captivating place I’ve ever been. We decided to go in the month of May because the temperatures are mild, the flowers are blooming and it’s not quite peak season, so you don’t have to worry about crowds.
