Parking in Amalfi: Where to Leave Your Car Near the Center

Amalfi gives its name to the entire coastline and was once one of Italy's four ancient Maritime Republics, with a history stretching back to the Middle Ages. Its Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Andrew, dominates the main square with a monumental staircase and an Arab-Norman facade; around it wind narrow alleys, handmade paper workshops (the famous "Amalfi paper"), and restaurants overlooking the sea.

It's one of the most visited stops on the entire Amalfi Coast, a starting point for boat trips to Capri or the Emerald Grotto, and a crossroads for those heading on to Ravello or Positano.

Amalfi's center is almost entirely pedestrian, and the few public parking spots near the harbor fill up quickly, especially during summer months and high-season weekends. Drivers arriving without a plan risk getting stuck in traffic on the coastal road right in the most congested stretch — the one running through town.

Booking a private parking spot before you leave avoids this problem entirely, since you'll already know exactly where to leave your car.

At Via Papa Leone X 77 there's an uncovered parking space, a convenient base for visiting Amalfi's historic center.
