Amalfi's Setting and Seasons

Why go

The town's position makes a map more useful than distance alone: moving away from the waterfront can mean climbing quickly into the valley. Summers are generally sunny and warm, while winters are milder and wetter. Use that contrast when deciding whether to focus on open air walking or the cathedral and other sheltered stops.

Useful to know

• Plan uphill streets for a cooler part of a warm day.
• On a wet day, prioritize the town centre and sheltered interiors over longer hillside walks.
