To borrow an old joke: no-one goes to the Amalfi Coast anymore — it’s too popular. Once a string of tiny, traditional fishing villages, in the past half century the region has grown into a shimmering honeypot for the great, the good, and the sometimes not-so-good, too — a heady, bustling hive whose sun-kissed cliffsides can feel both overwhelmingly beautiful and overwhelmed.
But the UNESCO World Heritage site remains staggeringly gorgeous and rich in culinary tradition. And if you know precisely where to go, it’s still possible to see a totally unspoilt side to the place the locals call the Divine Coast.
