From Alba sul Mare, you can easily reach Amalfi, Pogerola and other places along the coast by bus or ferry. Spend the day exploring, then return to the peace above Amalfi.

Amalfi

Around Piazza Duomo and the harbour, you will find restaurants, bars, small shops and ferry connections along the coast.

Amalfi is lively and often very busy in summer. In the morning and towards evening, the town reveals its quieter side.

Pogerola

Pogerola is located above Amalfi and is much quieter than the centre. The village is a good choice for a relaxed dinner away from the largest crowds.

You can reach Pogerola by taking the bus towards Pogerola.

Eating out

I prefer to recommend a few restaurants I genuinely like rather than a long list of interchangeable suggestions.

In Amalfi

My recommendations in Amalfi are Taverna degli Apostoli and Trattoria San Giuseppe.

In Pogerola

In Pogerola, I recommend Da Bruno alla Carcara and Trattoria da Rispoli.

Shopping in Amalfi

I buy fresh fruit and vegetables from the greengrocer in Piazza dei Dogi. You will also find small grocery shops and stores selling everyday essentials around the centre.

Along the coast

For trips along the Amalfi Coast, the ferry is usually more pleasant than the bus or car during the season. Services run from Amalfi harbour to various places along the coast.

Timetables vary according to the season and weather. Check the latest services shortly before your trip.
