Fornillo Beach is one of the Amalfi Coast’s gems. Accessible via a scenic coastal path from the main dock or a stairway from the town, this magical haven of tranquillity provides a quieter alternative to Positano’s main beach, Spiaggia Grande.

Fornillo Beach is made up of fine pebbled sand that adds a unique touch to your beachgoing experience. Enclosed by imposing cliffs dotted with vibrant wildflowers and verdant vegetation, the beach creates a private, intimate atmosphere perfect for relaxation. From here, you get a captivating view of Positano’s colorful cliffside houses, making the beach an ideal spot for photographers seeking the iconic Amalfi Coast shot.
Equipped with beach chairs, umbrellas, and a selection of fabulous beach restaurants and bars, Fornillo Beach offers all the necessities for an unforgettable beach day. Enjoy a leisurely swim in the calm, crystal-clear waters or unwind with a good book under the Italian sun. With its idyllic setting and serene ambiance, Fornillo Beach truly embodies the enchanting allure of the Amalfi Coast.
