FamilyExpert Tips & Helpful Hints

• This is the largest public park in Sorrento, a lush oasis of flowers and palms and benches to sit on for excellent people watching.
• Its clifftop setting provides astonishing views across the Bay of Naples to Mount Vesuvius. Imagine that you are Pliny the Younger, the Roman historian who provided an eyewitness account of the catastrophic 79 A.D. eruption and destruction of Pompei and Herculaneum from somewhere along the Sorrento cliffs.
• Check out the church of San Francesco with its famous wood door and enchanting 14th century cloister (try to catch a summer concert here). When it's time for a treat, stop in at a local shop for gelato.
