Spiaggia Grande, Positano

Campania

Positano's houses tumble down the cliff in tiers of pink, yellow and white straight to this pebble beach, the town's main strand and one of the most photographed views in Italy. Boats leave from here for Amalfi, Capri and the coast's smaller coves, and the Sentiero degli Dei trail begins its clifftop route from the hills just above.
