Holidays in Gulf of Naples & Amalfi Coast
Sorrento
Teetering on the edge of the ragged and rocky cliffs of the Amalfi coast, stylish Sorrento looks out onto the crystal waters of the Gulf of Naples and the commanding Mount Vesuvius. Cobbled alleyways surround the main square, Piazza Tasso and are full of shops, restaurants and bars, offering some of the finest food and wine in Italy. The mild and dry climate makes Sorrento an ideal destination at any time of the year. Within easy reach of Sorrento is the astonishing archeological site of Pompeii, the Roman town destroyed by Vesuvius in AD 79.
