Chapter 6: Sorrento
Breathtaking high-angle view over the dramatic cliffs, harbour, and glittering blue waters of the bay.
Arriving in Sorrento, I immediately fell in love with its vibrant energy and spectacular clifftop views. Beyond its own charm, Sorrento serves as the ultimate gateway for island hopping across the glittering bay. Standing high above the water, looking out at the dramatic cliffs and the endless blue horizon, you get a perfect preview of the majestic, breathtaking nature waiting just across the sea. It was the perfect base to prepare for my upcoming adventures to the iconic island of Capri."
