How to reach Amalfi
From Amalfi Coast towns, Sorrento and Salerno
-
On foot: You can easily reach Amalfi through a short walk or taking some (hundreds!) steps down to town if you're staying in a nearby village, such us Atrani, Pontone, Pogerola, Ravello or Scala.
-
By ferry (from Positano, Salerno, Cetara, Maiori, Minori only): If you're staying in one of these towns you can reach Amalfi by public ferry. This will drop you off at Pennello pier; from there just walk to Lido delle Sirene beach, it takes two minutes.
Please check that the ferry service is running on the official ferry company website travelmar.it/en/hours
Please note: ferries might not run in case of bad weather.
