Discover Positano Districts , if you want to experience the most authentic and peaceful side of Positano, start with the Positano district in Fornillo — the oldest neighborhood in town. Time seems to slow down here. Strolling through its quiet alleys, you’ll find spots like Via del Canovaccio and Rocchetta, far from the busy beach life of the Spiaggia Grande. From Fornillo, you can explore other historical quarters:

– Li Parlati, climbing toward Montepertuso;
– Punta Reginella, the beating heart of town;
– La Garitta, a small scenic lookout near the statue of the Madonna watching over Positano.

 

Each area has its own soul — but it all began in Fornillo.
