CHURCH
Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta
(Piazza Flavio Gioia; 8am-noon & 4-9pm)
This church is the most famous and - let's face it -
only major sight in Positano. Inside, it's a delightfully classical affair, its pillars topped
with gilded Ionic capitals and winged cherubs peeking from above every arch. Above the
main altar is a 13th-century Byzantine Black Madonna and Child.
Activities
Although Spiaggia Grande is no one's dream beach, with greyish sand covered by legions
of brightly coloured umbrellas, the water's clean and the setting is striking. Hiring a chair
and umbrella in the fenced-off areas costs around €20 per person per day, but the crowded
public areas are free.
