Honeymoon in Amalfi Coast, Italy
Lemon groves, cliffside villages, and pasta worth flying for.
Why Amalfi Coast, Italy works as a honeymoon
Positano, Ravello and Amalfi stack pastel houses up vertical cliffs above the Tyrrhenian Sea. The drive itself is a UNESCO experience, and the food (handmade scialatielli with lemon, fresh seafood) is some of Italy's best.
