Praiano — sleep here instead of Positano
Five minutes by car from Positano, half the price, the same west-facing sunset.
What to do here
Walk down the stairs to Marina di Praia — a cove between two cliffs with a single seafood restaurant (Trattoria da Armandino) and a swimmable shore. Above, the church of San Gennaro has the coast's only majolica-tiled dome.
At sunset, walk up to Africana Famous Club on the cliffside terrace for an aperitivo. The view of Positano two coves over, in golden light, is the photograph you came for.
