Stop 3
Pass by
An uncontaminated archipelago south of the Sorrento peninsula: Li Galli . There are three islands that make up Li Galli : Gallo Lungo, La Rotonda and Dei Briganti, the latter better known as La Castelluccia. The archipelago is part of the protected area of Punta Campanella and falls within the municipality of Positano. If you look at the outline of the archipelago from above, what you seem to be able to see is the figure of a dolphin or, if you want to remain faithful to the myth, the tail of a mermaid .

A crack in the rock, immersed in wild nature that frames a small beach of just 25 meters: this is how the Furore Fjord appears, a small natural jewel in the heart of the Amalfi Coast.
5
Developed mainly vertically, the city of Positano is famous above for all its small and characteristic narrow street full of many boutiques and handicraft shops that still today, as in the 60s, tailor-made sandals.
