A summer holiday trip is incomplete without beaches. And this is why, while we were exploring Italy, the Amalfi coast was top of our Italy bucket list.
Amalfi is like a dream, with its picturesque towns precariously perched between mountains and the sea, crystal-clear waters, and a vibrant atmosphere. You’ll be sure to fully enjoy your time there.
I had heard enough about this paradise on earth and it is beyond the expression of beauty, but trust me, nothing compared to a first-hand experience.
