The road peels away from the Naples quay and the city gives up its harbor noise to reveal a ribbon of sea and cliff: the Amalfi Drive. You’ll pass the lonely, rocky Li Galli islets—where legend says sirens once sang—then ease into Positano’s steep alleys, painted houses, and sunlit terraces before heading inland to the flattened, ash-preserved streets of Pompeii.
