Nerano

Escape to this charming fishing village in the heart of the Amalfi Coast with its beachfront restaurants serving the famous dish "Spaghetti di Nerano"

Located halfway between Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast and near Sant'Agata sui due Golfi just off the main tourist path is Nerano. It is renowned for its typical fished based cuisine and has some excellent restaurants.

This gloriously peaceful village is surrounded by one of the most untouched and dramatic areas on the Amalfi Coast. Nature lovers will want to explore the mountainside with walks a plenty through winding paths of ancient olive groves and natural beauty. It overlooks the pretty little harbour below but its main attractive is its nearby beach.

Beach - A steep road leads from the village down to Marina del Cantone where the transparent waters means it is popular with scuba divers. From here visitors can access the path which leads to the hidden gem that is Recommone beach. The small fishing vessels bob up and down in the waves stirred up by the jets and ferries passing by on their way to and from Capri and the Amalfi Coast.

The beach is lined with restaurants, nearly all offering outdoor terraces with lovely views of the harbour. A local speciality dish to try is the Spaghetti con Zucchine alla Nerano, a popular traditional Amalfi Coast dish but the Nerano twist is the richer, creamier flavour from a local ingredient calle caciocavallo cheese.

If you are looking for a relaxing holiday or just to visit for a day on the beach, we will certainly recommend Nerano and its beach to anyone.
