With children

The Amalfi Coast with children requires strategy. Some towns are all stairs, some beaches are all rocks. This collection maps the family-friendly spots: flat towns, sandy beaches, kid-approved restaurants, and activities that keep everyone happy.

1. 1Base in MaioriThe longest beach on the coast (930m), flat promenade, affordable, well-connected. The best family base — 2-3x cheaper than Positano.Town
2. 2Minori beach — all-day sun250m of fine sand facing south. Gets sun all day, shallow water for kids, and Sal De Riso’s gelato is a 2-minute walk away.Beach
3. 3La Baia, Vietri: a wide family beach400m of sand, very sunny, easy to reach by car. One of the few accessible beaches for strollers and small children.Beach
4. 4Skip Positano with kidsPositano is a vertical city of stairs. With strollers or tired toddlers, it’s miserable. Visit without kids, or take the ferry for a quick photo stop.Tip
5. 5Ceramic painting in VietriKids love it. Workshops in Raito let children paint their own ceramic tile or plate to take home. A perfect rainy-day activity.Experience
6. 6Ferry ride as adventureTake the ferry from Maiori to Amalfi (15 min): the coast looks different from the sea. Kids treat it as a boat adventure, and you avoid the SS163.Tip
