Getting Around, Positano Travel and Positano Transport
(Positano, Campania, Italy, IT)



Often referred to as a town of 'snakes and ladders', because there are some many steep hills and straight steps, Positano offers a fairly limited number of transport options. Most visitors to Positano simply choose to travel around on foot, hire a car, or explore the coastline by using bus transport.

However, for something a little more scenic, a number of different boat trips are available from Positano's port, using both ferries and hydrofoils. Those using a boat as their preferred mode of transport will find this a very fast way to travel to a variety of destinations along the Amalfi Coast and around the Bay of Naples.
