Chiostro di San Francesco

Located in the back streets next to the baroque San Francesco Church, the Cloister is a beautiful, serene place for quiet contemplation. During the summer months it becomes the backdrop for a variety of concerts and art exhibitions.

There are three main areas worth staying in during your visit to Sorrento. Piazza Tasso, nestled in the heart of the town, Marina Piccola, the buzzing port for Sorrento's sea travel, and Marina Grande, an idyllic coastal area detached from the town's center.

Sorrento experiences mild and pleasant weather throughout the year, making it a popular destination for all seasons. However, for the sunniest and driest weather, it's best to visit Sorrento between April and October. During these months, the town enjoys an average of 11-12 hours of sunshine per day.

If you prefer a warm and welcoming atmosphere that is slightly less busy than its neighbouring coastline, Sorrento makes for a brilliant choice. If dramatic landscapes are more your thing, the Amalfi Coast will suit you.
