Positano is the most photographed village on the Amalfi Coast — and one of the hardest places to park. Here's how to arrive and leave your car safely, just steps from the center.
Positano is the most photographed village on the Amalfi Coast — and one of the hardest places to park. Here's how to arrive and leave your car safely, just steps from the center.
Pastel houses clinging to the cliffside, staircases tumbling down to the sea, the majolica dome of Santa Maria Assunta peeking out above the rooftops: Positano is arguably the single most shared image when people picture the Amalfi Coast. Every year it draws hundreds of thousands of visitors from around the world, pulled in by the beaches of Marina Grande and Fornillo, scenic hiking trails, and the boutiques behind the famous "Positano style."
All that beauty comes with a logistical catch: the village is built almost vertically on a steep hillside, the roads are extremely narrow, and summer traffic can grind to a halt for hours.
First-time visitors driving into Positano often underestimate the situation. The coastal road running through town is narrow — technically two-way, but barely passable for two cars at once — and the public parking spots near the village center are few, expensive, and usually full by mid-morning during peak season.
The typical result: you arrive, circle the coastal road looking for a spot, lose an hour of precious vacation time, and end up settling for parking far from the center, followed by a long uphill (or downhill, then uphill again on the way back) walk in the sun.
There's a much simpler solution: book a private parking space before you set off.
At Via Guglielmo Marconi 334 there's a covered parking space, managed by a host with a verified identity — a meaningful detail for anyone booking from far away, perhaps from abroad, without ever having seen the spot in person.
Being outside the ZTL is a real practical advantage: it means you can arrive without worrying about permits or time-based traffic restrictions, one of the most common headaches for first-time drivers on the Amalfi Coast.
Booking takes just a few minutes online, directly from the parking listing page. You can check availability for your travel dates and see the host's current rate in real time.
Once you've parked, Positano is best explored on foot — though "on foot" here almost always means stairs. Must-see stops include Marina Grande beach, the heart of village life by the sea; the Church of Santa Maria Assunta with its iconic majolica dome; the path to the quieter Fornillo beach; and, for hikers, the starting point of the famous Path of the Gods, just a short distance away, offering some of the most stunning views on the entire coast.
Is the parking spot in Positano inside the ZTL? No, the parking space is located outside the limited traffic zone, so it's reachable without restrictions.
How much does parking cost in Positano? The rate is set by the host and can be hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly, and may change over time. The up-to-date price is always shown on the booking page.
Is the parking spot supervised? Yes, it has both an on-site caretaker and security cameras.
How far is the parking spot from Positano's center? The parking spot is just a few meters from the village center, an easy walk to both the main street and the beach area.
Do I need to book well in advance? Yes, especially during high season (June to September): parking availability in Positano is very limited and fills up quickly.
