  The municipality of Meta is located in the Sorrento peninsula along with the municipalities of Vico Equense, Piano di Sorrento, Sant'Agnello, Sorrento and Massa Lubrense. It is the second country on the peninsula coming from Naples, after Vico Equense, it overlooks only the Gulf of Naples. Meta rises about 111 meters above sea level and covers an area of about 2.5 km2, which include both coastal areas, with over 800 meters of coastline, and mountainous areas, with the hamlet of Alberi, Monte Vico Alvano in the South East, 642 meters, and part of the Lattari Mountains. Although there are no real political divisions within the municipality, popular tradition sees Meta divided into two distinct parts: Meta "above" and Meta "below"; the first includes Trees and the inner area of the country; the second is instead composed of the area in front of the coast.

  Sorrento

  The city of Sorrento, from which the whole territory that, perched on the Lattari Mountains, separates the Gulf of Naples from that of Salerno, takes its name, is a renowned destination for international tourism: lying on a large tufa terrace overlooking the sea, it is a small and quiet holiday resort famous for its villas, hotels, parks and gardens, as well as for the beautiful views and characteristic citrus groves. Of Greek origin, and then raised under Roman domination, Sorrento gravitates today around Piazza Tasso and Corso Italia (on which the Duomo stands), from which you can reach the sea view through a maze of narrow streets full of characteristic and lively shops. The most impressive view is that observable from the viewpoint of the Villa Comunale, which opens onto the port and the entire Gulf of Naples.

• Li Galli (Pass by)

  Gallo Lungo is the largest of the three and is the only one to have been inhabited since Roman times: it has an elongated shape that extends for about 400 m with a variable width that towards the center is about 100 m and towards the "head" is about 200 m. To the west of Gallo Lungo are La Rotonda and Dei Briganti to the north of the Rotonda, the latter denomination reported on the website of the municipality of Positano,[1] although more commonly the island is referred to on texts as La Castelluccia. The islets are covered with grass and shrubs, with a great abundance of daffodils.

  Positano

  Positano is perhaps a unique place in the world! It is a jewel of spontaneous architecture, set on the rock overlooking the sea. Clusters of colorful houses, sometimes cubic in appearance, are built on often very steep steps, which descend to the beach, connected by alleys and long staircases. If arriving in Positano along the coastal road, from Amalfi or Sorrento, offers sudden panoramic views from above over the small town, disembarking from the sea is truly a unique experience that fills the eyes and soul with beauty! And it is precisely from the sea, that around the first century AD.The Romans arrived first, intent on building sumptuous maritime villas in Positano and along the Amalfi Coast ‘for the exercise of their refined idleness’. The villa of Positano would have belonged to Posides Claudi Cesaris, freedman of Emperor Claudius, hence the name of Posidianum extended from the villa to the entire place.

• (Pass by)

  Furore is one of the most picturesque villages on the Amalfi Coast. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. Best known for its striking fjord, it is also the home of Fiorduva, one of the most appreciated wines in the world. A small reality with great riches to discover. Furore will captivate you especially for its landscape appearance. It appears, in fact, as a charming village set in a deep valley: a nativity scene of houses clinging to the slopes of the Lattari Mountains, remained intact over time, wedged between overhanging rocks and rich vegetation climbed on rock walls.

  The existence of the cave was unknown until 1932, when a fisherman accidentally discovered its existence. The life of the fisherman, called Luigi Buonocore, totally changed, to the point that from the moment of discovery until his death the man was labeled as “discoverer of the cave” (legend has it that Mr. Luigi was recognized on the street, until he assumed the connotations of “living myth”). The merit of this fisherman is really enormous, since he brought to everyone's attention a wonderful space for tourist, but also scientific purposes. The cave is in fact a magical kingdom, where light takes on wonderful and fairytale connotations. When the sea is calm and the sun is high, the cave really looks magical thanks to the reflections that the light is able to generate.
