Chez Black dining stop

  1. Positano Spiaggia Grande — Positano beachfront; morning, ~45 minutes. Enjoy the iconic harbor and beach views before lunch, with minimal walking from the waterfront.
  2. Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta — Positano center; late morning, ~30 minutes. See the famous majolica-tiled dome and historic Byzantine icon near the beach.
  3. Chez Black — Spiaggia Grande; 2:00 PM reservation, ~2 hours. Have your priority seafood-focused meal directly on the waterfront; budget approximately €50–€90 per person.
  4. Positano harbor boat cruise — Positano waterfront; mid-afternoon, ~1.5 hours. Take a short coastal cruise from near the beach to see the cliffs without a demanding walk.
  5. Granita or espresso at a waterfront café — Spiaggia Grande; late afternoon, ~45 minutes. Relax by the sea before departing, with coffee and dessert typically about €6–€15 per person.

Late Morning

With only six hours in Positano, keep everything around Spiaggia Grande and avoid the steep upper streets. Start at Positano Spiaggia Grande for about 45 minutes: the harbor, colorful houses, and cliffside views are all immediately accessible from the waterfront. Then walk just a few minutes to Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta, allowing 30 minutes to see its majolica-tiled dome and Byzantine icon. The church is generally open during daylight, though hours can vary; modest dress is appreciated.

Lunch and Early Afternoon

Be at Chez Black for your 2:00 PM reservation, ideally arriving 10–15 minutes early since the beach area can be busy and table seating is strictly managed. Plan around two hours for a leisurely seafood-focused meal, with approximately €50–€90 per person before extras. After lunch, stay near the waterfront for the Positano harbor boat cruise—confirm the exact departure point and return time with the operator, as schedules and sea conditions can change. Allow a little flexibility between the restaurant and boat; both are close, but the beach promenade may be crowded.

Late Afternoon

Finish with a granita or espresso at a waterfront café on Spiaggia Grande, budgeting roughly €6–€15 per person. This is the right time to pause rather than attempt Positano’s uphill lanes: choose a table with a view, keep your receipt if you need to settle anything separately, and leave enough time to reach your onward transport. Positano’s waterfront is largely pedestrianized, so taxis or porters may only be able to drop you at the nearest accessible road above town; arrange pickup details before settling in for coffee.
