Seafront restaurants serve fresh catches and Campanian specialties, though reservations are essential during summer months. Getting around means embracing the vertical landscape on foot, as the village thrives on its pedestrian paths and limited vehicle access. Boutique hotels carved into cliffsides offer spectacular views for those willing to climb a few extra steps.
