When is the best time to visit the Amalfi Coast

When is the best time to visit the Amalfi Coast?

As with many resorts in Italy the peak season is July & August. If possible we would recommend trying to avoid the Ferragosto, usually around the middle of August, which is a national holiday in Italy, when offices, factories and many stores are closed and mark the beginning of the exodus from the towns and cities for families not working in the tourist industry to take their annual holidays for 2 weeks.

If you are a couple and looking for a relaxing holiday without the masses then we would suggest either April to June when the Spring flowers are in bloom and the weather is just warm enough the first dips into the Meditterranean sea of the season. September is also a good time to visit as temperatures are still warm enough, the children are back at school and demand is lower meaning reduced prices.

If visiting outside of peak season they we recommend just checking the swimming pool of your villa is open for use as the owners are usually are quite shocked people like to use the pools when unheated.
