Apart from being a fascinating city fully of history and things to see, the Tyrrhenian coastal city of Salerno also acts as an important transport hub.
Its busy port connects it to Palermo and Messina on the island of Sicily, Positano & Amalfi on the Amalfi Coast and the islands of Ischia and Capri. |

By road from Salerno you can travel south towards Calabria and eventually Sicily along the main A3 motorway, or north towards Naples and Rome. Salerno also sits at the eastern end of the famous Amalfi Coast Road which attracts millions of visitors every year, tempted by its precipitous corners with their stunning scenery. The route along the Amalfi Coast Road from Salerno to Sorrento takes a couple of hours or so and also opens up some interesting possibilities for anybody wishing to incorporate Ischia as part of their travel plans.
