Amalfi Coast
 

Anybody have any good ideas of where to stay for cheap (<$100 USD) a day at various places on Amalfi Coast? Also, how much is a boat ride to Capri? Are there local trains (covered by Eurail pass) that ride through Amalfi Coast?

Hi again - The cheapest option in Positano is the Brikette hostel:
www.brikette.com

There are no trains along the Amalfi Coast itself.
You can use local SITA buses, ferries or hydrofoils between the coastal villages.

Positano-Capri costs € 14.50-€ 16.50 each way.
(- fares from Sorrento are a little cheaper)

For details/timetables see:

Hope this helps ...

Hi P,

< any good ideas of where to stay for cheap (<$100 USD) a day ...

single or double?

This hostel/hotel is very popular and is located in the quintessential Amalfi coast village of Atrani, within an easy walk of Amalfi. Atrani has a nice sandy beach and at least one excellent restaurant.
