What is the less touristy beach in the Amalfi Coast?

Fornillo Beach is one of the best destinations for those looking for a romantic and relaxing experience in Amalfi. You won't find crowds here like you would at touristy neighborhoods such as Marina Grande. The beach is mostly quiet, as it's most often populated by locals rather than travelers.
