Or, from Positano, you can walk ten minutes from the ferry dock to this quiet beach, where you can rent lounge chairs and umbrellas inexpensively. A few restaurants offer pizza and other snacks.

  This beach is the entry by sea of the city. All boats bringing tourists arrive here. The trade is done, full of shops and restaurants and is on the "low" of the city. Get ready to walk and climb or descend too. Is one of the steepest coast cities and larger. This beach has a good structure, including with exchangers and well-maintained and clean public toilets. Many shops and restaurants make the place nice and well packed.
