About this drive

The Amalfi Coast Road, or SS163, is one of the most dramatic and beautiful coastal drives in the world. Hugging the cliffsides of the Sorrentine Peninsula above the Tyrrhenian Sea, this 40-kilometre road connects a string of colourful fishing villages including Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. The road is famously narrow, carved through cliff faces with blind corners and vertiginous drops on one side, offering breathtaking views at every turn. A UNESCO World Heritage Site and a bucket-list drive.
