Amalfi Coast

1) Church of Santa Maria Assunta Positano

The church of Santa Maria Assunta, dedicated to San Vito, the patron saint of Positano, is located in Piazza Flavio Gioia, a few steps from the beach of Marina Grande and can only be reached on foot.
Thanks also to its characteristic majolica dome, made of yellow, green and blue tiles, it is one of the most visited and photographed attractions in Positano.
The abbey dates back to the second half of the 10th century and is built on the spot where, according to a legend, a Byzantine icon of the black Madonna and child was found on board a sailing ship that arrived near Positano and was swept away by a storm.
Whether fact or legend, today the icon can be admired inside the Church and is one of the most precious objects kept inside. A few steps away from the church is the bell tower, built in 1707, with a medieval bas-relief in the centre depicting a sea monster, a fox and a fish made in Campania.

8) Grotta dello Smeraldo

The Emerald Grotto owes its name to the emerald-green hue of the water as a result of naturally filtered sunlight passing through an underwater groove that connects it to the open sea. The cavity is partially invaded by the sea and in very ancient times was located above sea level only thanks to bradyseism, the ground of the cave lowered, causing it to sink underwater.
The Emerald Grotto is accessible both by sea and by land, from which it is descended by lift.
