TOP OF CHAPTER
West of Sorrento
The countryside west of Sorrento is the very essence of southern Italy. Tortuous roads
wind their way through hills covered in olive trees and lemon groves, passing through
sleepy villages and tiny fishing ports. There are magnificent views at every turn, the best
being from Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi and the high points overlooking Punta Campanella,
the westernmost point of the Sorrentine Peninsula.
