What shoes to wear to Positano?

SNEAKERS: For those days spent hiking or longer days spent exploring, I'd recommend being good to your feet and wearing sneakers. In Positano, there are a lot of inclines and declines, as well as steep staircases, so wedges and heels are discouraged.

Luckily, the popular dinner time in Italy is between 8 and 10pm so since it was impossible to make a dinner reservation days before, we went to restaurants around 5/6pm hoping to be able to get seated. Hope you enjoyed my travel guide on for an incredible Positano Italy trip.

Carry cash on you at all times as some businesses don't accept credit cards, especially in the small towns along the Amalfi Coast. You can get by with just a credit card but be sure to carry euros for small purchases like water.

It is totally doable in summertime because it's very warm so layers are light. Shorts, sun dresses and sandals that can go from day to night with accessories is the way to go! Comfortable shoes are a must-a versatile sneaker, a slide sandal are pretty much all you need.

Yes. You can choose the pay side of the beach and have a deck chair and umbrella or you could do what we did and swim on the 'free' side of the beach. No sand to speak of lots of pebbles so if you are not used to walking on pebbles/rocks wear beach shoes into the water.
