Vietri sul Mare Holidays

If you’re looking for a less trodden path along the Amalfi Coast, the ceramic-covered Vietri Sul Mare is it. As the gateway to the Amalfi Coast, this charming town boasts a rich history and cultural heritage, making it an ideal starting point for exploring the region. Stroll through the narrow, winding streets of the old town, where you’ll find the colourful hand-painted ceramics, vibrant tiles, and pottery covering the houses and artisanal shops. 

Set out on foot to discover the beautiful Church of San Giovanni Battista with its striking majolica dome, pop into the Vietri Ceramic Museum, and stroll the vibrant tiled walkways at Villa Comunale Vietri sul Mare, where stunning views of the Tyrrhenian Sea await. This tranquil seaside town also boasts stunning beaches where you can relax and soak up the Mediterranean sun. Marina di Vietri, the main beach, has clear blue waters, umbrellas, loungers, beach cafés and restaurants, while the stretch of golden sand of Baia Beach is the longest on the Amalfi Coast. 

After a day of exploration, indulge in delicious local cuisine at one of the town’s traditional restaurants, devouring dishes like fresh seafood pasta, world-class pizza, and the famous local lemon desserts. The town’s proximity to other Amalfi Coast highlights also makes it an excellent base for day trips. You can easily visit the enchanting towns of Amalfi, Positano, and Ravello, but you might find it difficult to leave this enchanting ceramic town behind.
