Sorrento in One Day: the Beaches
Well…we are pretty sure once in Sorrento you really deserve to jump into the sea and that’s easy thing. Would be actually a shame not to taste our beautiful waters and the sun warming your skin. From the main villa, you can go straight to the (private) beaches. You can decide to reach them by walk (there are some stairs to do) or by elevator (with a low payment). Once down, you can decide which Lido (private beach) is going to fit you (prices and services).
Baths of Queen Giovanna

Queen Giovanna’s bath is a literally a little swimming pool surrounded by nature. Is it worth a visit? Of course it is. Far from the city center about 35-40 minutes by walk it’s one of the most scenic places in town. The other way to see it? You can book a boat tour with us of Sorrento peninsula, including this marvelous spot. What are you waiting for? Our skipper can’t wait to explain the beauties of this area.
Sorrento in One Day: Piazza Tasso
Piazza Tasso is the beating heart of the city. It’s “the square” where all the people have to pass through to go to the beach or to the historical center. Stop at Fauno Bar, one of the most iconic places in town where you can enjoy typical food from Sorrento.
Historical Center
Get lost in city center among its narrow streets. You’ll be surrounded by many shops making limoncello, restaurants, and vibrancy. Remember this: many shops will try to offer you limoncello, and you will never say no, never say no to a limoncello shot.
Stay in the city centre
Staying in the center of Sorrento is the best way to have everything within walking distance. See the interactive map below.
San Francesco’s Cloister
This is another beautiful spot not to miss in Sorrento. San Francesco’s Cloister is very cozy and it is free to visit. Inside you might find some exhibition. It’s just next to the entrance of the villa, the one to go to the beach. So our suggestion is to visit it before or after the beach day.
