Drink in the glitz and glamour of the towns and villages along the Amalfi Coast then head south for a rather more chilled atmosphere and equally dramatic views in the Cilento Park.

A two-centre fly and drive staying in hotels chosen for their spectacular location near the sea and with far reaching views

A combination of world-class heritage, breathtaking natural beauty and excellent food and wine.

The nearest airport is Naples, where your holiday starts as soon as you collect your car and make your way to the Relais Blu. The drive is about 1h and 30 minutes, most of it is flanked with coastal views.

You are in the western offshoot of the Sorrento Peninsula, the strip of land that divides the Gulf of Naples and the Sorrento Coast from the Gulf of Salerno and its marvelous Amalfi Coast.

At about 300 meters above sea level, Termini is an hamlet on the Sorrento coast. The most representative point of Termini is the Piazza Santa Croce di Termini with its belvedere right on the island of Capri.

This is a favourite location for those seeking a relaxing holiday away from the crowds of Amalfi, Positano and Sorrento which are still within easy reach.

The road runs along the sea and crosses the most touristic and exploited coastal stretch; but just reach Pisciotta to fill your gaze with beauty. Powerful centenary olive trees announce the town of the best extra virgin olive oil in Cilento; the historic village is a maze of alleys and stairs with ancient buildings that reveal internal courtyards and gardens. The sea 4 kilometres away is a marvel of colors, uncontaminated caves and coves.

Eleven kilometres of curves separate Pisciotta from Capo Palinuro: epic tales, crystal clear sea and olive trees, many olive trees.

The stretch of coast between Palinuro and Marina di Camerota is surrounded by long and sandy beaches - some easily accessible, others reachable only by sea -, rocky coves and sea caves to be explored by sea.

Cala degli Infreschi, so called for the cold fresh water springs that flow from the seabed, is a natural heritage of rare beauty, a protected marine reserve. It can be reached by boat or on foot along the Path of the Mediterranean, which moves from the small port of Marina di Camerota to the Lentiscelle cave: about 3 kilometres for two and a half hours of walking along an ancient mule track that suddenly opens onto Cala Fortuna and continues along silent bays and ravines.

First the Pozzallo, then the Blue Grotto and, again, the Noglio, in a swing of green terraces and bare rocks overlooking the sea. The landscape is among the most beautiful in the whole of Southern Italy.
