Conca dei Marini

Fascinating Grotta dello Smeraldo
The beautiful coastal village of Conca dei Marini is located between Amalfi and Praiano. A real village centre is difficult to define – with the nice, white cubic houses scattered over the terraced slopes. It is hard to imagine that, during the Middle Ages, the coastal village had a merchant fleet nearly as strong as Amalfi’s.
The district of Marina di Conca, protected by the headland of „Capo di Conca“, is surely one of the most beautiful fishing borgos of the Amalfi coast. From „Capo di Conca“, which is crowned by a 16th century tower, you enjoy a fantastically wide panorama.
- Fascinating wonder of nature: Grotta dello Smeraldo.
Conca dei Marini’s greatest tourist attraction is „Grotta dello Smeraldo“ with its emerald green shimmer and which need not shun comparison with Capri’s world famous Blue Grotto.
The grotto which was discovered in 1932 is accessible either by elevator from the coastal road or by boat. Fascinating as well, the stalagmite formations which reach up to just below the sea’s surface and which you can admire while rowing over the grotto’s sea.
