About Salerno

Salerno is the practical gateway to the Amalfi Coast—ferries and buses to Positano and Amalfi leave from a working waterfront city with its own medieval core. April to June and September offer the best balance: sea warm enough for Lungomare Trieste strolls, fewer cruise-ship day-trippers, and Luci d'Artista installations from November through January for winter visitors. July and August bring heat and traffic on the coast road; start ferry days early. The Duomo's Arab-Norman cloister and Arechi Castle views reward a night before heading south.
