Summer Escape: Costiera Amalfitana Special Sun, sea and great food

Sunny beaches, secret coves, crystal clear sea, the scent of lemons, breathtaking views, culture, warm people and excellent food are just some of the things that makes the Amalfi Coast such a special place.

This stretch of southern Italy, which stretches for 11.321 hectares between the Gulf of Naples and the Gulf of Salerno, so beautiful and precious to be an UNESCO heritage site since 1997, has always been a favorite destination for international tourism, a good choice chosen from the myths of past, from the likes of Anna Magnani and Jackie Kennedy, but also by contemporary celebrities such as LeBron James, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé and many others.

nss magazine takes you on a journey through a glimpse of paradise that the whole world envies us for.
