7. Sorrento
Gateway to the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento offers dramatic cliffs, lemon groves, and panoramic views of the Bay of Naples. Its laid-back charm and easy access to Capri and Pompeii make it a top choice. Come for the scenery, stay for the soul of southern Italy.
The old town’s narrow streets are filled with artisan shops, cafés, and history. Relaxing at a beach club while watching the sunset over Mount Vesuvius, Sorrento is endlessly inspiring.
