Just an hour south by car from the famed Amafi Coast is the lesser known (to anyone but Italians) Cilento Coast. The Amalfi Coast is incredible—there is a reason it's so heavily touristed. But let's be honest, it's packed with tourist and expensive! If you're looking for an Italian beach town with fewer tourists, more "Italian" Italian food, and protected forests and coastline, you're looking for the Cilento Coast. Plus, with fewer tourists, comes a smaller price tag.

In this episode we'll tell you about a few of our favorite towns on this coast, how to get there, and what to do.

If you're planning your trip via train or bus to the Cilento, we highly recommend that you book through Trenitalia. Few other sites have schedules and correct info for public transit from Naples or Salerno for instance, where you're likely coming from.

We also mention Cilento Link in this episode which is a bus line you can use to get from town-to-town on the Cilento Coast.

If you'd like to book a ferry, for instance from Salerno to Agropoli, you can use Ferry Hopper.
