The months in gold are when the weather, the crowds and the prices work out best.
The Amalfi Coast (Italian: Costiera amalfitana [koˈstjɛːra amalfiˈtaːna] or Costa d'Amalfi) is a stretch of coastline overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Gulf of Salerno. It is located in the Province of Salerno, in the Campania region of southern Italy, south of the Sorrentine Peninsula and north of the Cilentan Coast. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997, it is one of Italy's most popular seaside destinations. It is named after the town of Amalfi, which has historically been its main geographical and political hub.
