Furore

"The fury of the sea", a charming place, split into 2 by the sea and mountain but reunited by a breath-taking bridge

A little-know destination on the Amalfi Coast, between Amalfi and Positano. The village is separated into two parts, the spectacular cluster of fishermans houses that cling to the cliffs edge known as the Borgo and the hamlet called Fiordo situated at the foot of cliff down by the sea along the main road. A mountain pass is the only connection between the two, which you can walk through narrow alleyways admiring the cultivated hillside gardens. There is no main piazza or central area therefore this village is known locally as a non-town.

It is suggested the name Furore comes from the sound of the sea during stormy nights when waves crash onto the rocks creating a might roar. The comune has seen some investment recently delivering a few restaurants, pizzerias and accommodation ranging from agriturismo to 5 star hotels

Beach - From the road you can walk down 200m to a hidden beach

How to get there - If you're planning to visit Furore without a car be prepared for the road and height distances. The Fiordo is right next to the main road and if you are planning to use public transport inform the driver of your planned destination as you may miss it.
