Below the Bay of Naples, the Amalfi Coast peninsula between Sorrento and Amalfi is one of the most spectacularly beautiful coastlines in the world. With steep limestone cliffs and impossibly clear waters, Capri is an eternal favourite; the Emperor Tiberius built his villa here. It is easy to see why people return time and time again to this island of scented meadows and coastal paths fringed with pink oleander. The volcanic island of Ischia boasts a semi-tropical vegetation, terraces of vines, tempting black sand beaches and thermal pools. There's also evocative Ischia-Porto with its Aragonese castle.
The cuisine on the Amalfi Coast uses the freshest vegetables and the famous mozzarella cheese is always on the menu. Try it in salad with sweet tomatoes, baked with aubergine slices or on its own with an accompaniment of herbs. Fresh fruit features heavily too - figs are often used in antipasti along with slices of ham and what better way to finish off a meal than with a slice of fresh water melon? Pizza is a favourite dish all over Italy, but nowhere more so than here (it was invented in Naples!). The thinnest of bases are cooked in the hottest of wood ovens and are garnished with a mouth-watering variety of toppings. And not forgetting the abundant home-made pasta dishes.
