The Costiera Amalfitana, or Amalfi Coast, is widely considered
Italy's most scenic stretch of coastline, a landscape of towering
bluffs, pastel-hued villages terraced into hillsides, precipitous
corniche roads, luxuriant gardens, and expansive vistas over turquoise
waters and green-swathed mountains. Deemed by UNESCO "an outstanding
example of a Mediterranean landscape, with exceptional cultural and
natural scenic values," the coast was awarded a coveted spot on the
World Heritage list in 1997.
And it also happens to be a fantastic place to take a drive. Check out how to do it, and find dozens of other great road trips (from the Pacific Coast Highway to the Jamaica's Pirate Route) at Traveler's new online special: Drives of a Lifetime.
