The best ways to visit this small enchanting city are catching one of the small buses that connect the higher part of the Village to the harbor and the beach, or walk the narrow streets and the stairs that will quickly bring you up or down.

There are many shops of leather sandals in Positano, a style unique in the world created by masters that are available to design your own model, following your guidelines on colour and favorite shape! Positano is the coast’s most picturesque and photogenic town, with steeply-stacked houses tumbling down to the sea in a cascade of sun-bleached peach, pink and terracotta colours.
No less colourful are its steep streets and steps lined with wisteria-draped hotels, smart restaurants and fashionable boutiques. Look beyond the facades and the fashion, however, and you will find reassuring signs of everyday reality – crumbling stucco, streaked paintwork and even, on occasion, a faint whiff of drains. There’s still a southern Italian holiday feel about the place, with sunbathers eating pizza on the beach, kids pestering parents for gelati and chic women from Milan checking out the boutiques.
The fashionista history runs deep – Moda Positano was born here in the ’60s and the town was the first in Italy to import bikinis from France. John Steinbeck visited in 1953 and wrote in an article for Harper’s Bazaar: ‘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.’ Ferries run daily from downtown pier if you want to make a day trip to Capri and Ischia.
Whether your dream is a wedding on a terrace facing the sea or in a wonderful hall, in Positano you will realize it! The most important day of your life should be celebrated in one of the most gorgeous settings in the world. Perhaps that’s why you’re already thinking of getting married on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, since here every corner provides the ideal backdrop for the photos of your big day!
