The drive from Naples airport follows the A3 and SS145 past Sorrento, continuing 10 minutes beyond to Massa Lubrense. The area includes the hamlets of Nerano (with its legendary beach restaurant Lo Scoglio), Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi (panoramic views over both the Bay of Naples and the Amalfi Coast), and Marina del Cantone (the best swimming beach on the peninsula).
Massa Lubrense is the base for some of the region's best hiking: the Punta Campanella trail (2h) ends at the lighthouse with Capri views, while the descent to Ieranto Bay reveals a pristine cove in a protected marine reserve. [Snorkelling tours](/blog/best-snorkeling-spots-amalfi-coast) depart from Marina del Cantone.
Despite being just 10 minutes past Sorrento, accommodation prices in Massa Lubrense are 30–40% lower. The food scene is exceptional — this is where Sorrento's best restaurants source their ingredients.
