What to expect
Via Cristoforo Colombo
Kick off your Positano adventure with a stroll down the iconic Christopher Columbus Street, a postcard that comes to life. Handcrafted ceramic shops burst with color, breezy Mediterranean fashion boutiques tempt with elegant designs, and glimpses of the turquoise sea flash between rows of pastel terraces clinging to the cliffs, setting the perfect tone for the rest of your walk.
Square of the Tales
Soon, you’ll step into the charming Square of the Tales, a pocket of everyday life that feels as warm and inviting as the morning sun. Locals chatting on benches, tourists taking selfies, and street performers adding a splash of flair—it’s a wonderful place to pause and soak in the rhythm of Positano’s daily life.
Next, meander your way down Mills Street—a narrow, whimsical lane that feels straight out of a movie. Lined with tucked-away restaurants and cozy cafés, it’s a feast for all the senses. Breathe in the scent of fresh pastries and espresso, and maybe pause to admire a hidden courtyard or two.
Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta
Next, the glorious Church of Santa Maria Assunta awaits. Its majolica-tiled dome sparkles in the sun like a jewel, drawing you closer. Step inside and you’ll find a peaceful sanctuary filled with centuries of devotion. The highlight is the Byzantine Madonna, a 13th-century icon said to have miraculous powers. Paired with golden mosaics and ancient frescoes, this church is more than a place of worship—it’s a portal into Positano’s soul.
Your path then leads to the lively Positano Marina Grande Beach. You won’t need a swimsuit to enjoy this stop—just take a moment to soak in the joyful energy of beachgoers laughing, playing, and living their best summer moments.
Positano
From there, the walk along Via Positanesi d'America is pure magic. Think endless sea views, towering cliffs, and the quiet presence of a lone rock tower rising from the waves. It’s where the glamour of Positano gives way to something a little more wild and poetic.
MAR Positano Villa Romana
End your tour at the Roman Archaeological Museum, a peaceful, tucked-away treasure that many travelers miss. Wander at your own pace through ancient ruins and stories from another time—an unexpected and unforgettable finish to your sun-soaked journey through Positano.
