The experience
A hundred-meter south-facing pebble cove below Vettica Minore, reachable only by shuttle boat from Amalfi's harbor, with two family restaurants, the ruins of the old Santa Croce chapel, and a natural 'lovers' arch'.
No road, no bus stop, and the old stairway is gone — you only get there if you know to book the boat.

It's only worth the detour May–Sep. Turn up outside that window and you're looking at a different place; we'd rather say so than sell you the photo.
