Marina di Praia
Latest update: 11 August 2024
Situated between Praiano and Conca dei Marini, the little cove of Marina di Praia goes almost unnoticed as you approach it from the main Amalfi Coast Road.
However, this is certainly not a place to be missed as it's one of the prettiest spots along the whole coastline. As you walk down the slope you first arrive at a small car park where there's a collection of buildings including Ristorante Alfonso a Mare. |

The restaurant lies just behind the beach which is mainly pebbles with a few slithers of sand and the home to dozens of fishing boats.
Take note, as with many beaches along the Amalfi Coast, Marina di Praia enjoys the majority of its sunshine in the mornings so bear that in mind if you're heading down there to sunbathe as by the afternoon the sun starts to hide behind the rocks.
To the right of the beach is a pretty pathway that seems to go on forever and dotted along the path there are various bars and restaurants. If you follow the path up you can walk all the way to Praiano which is itself a lovely walk.
