We're finally going to do the trip that covid cancelled: the Amalfi Coast. We once got a glimpse during a brief visit to Positano 32 Xmases ago, but really, this will be our first genuine stay. The first half of the month will be at a rental in Minori, the second on Ischia. If you've ever been to either Ischia or Minori during the off-season or shoulder season, please might you share your impressions? Any tips? Looking for any kind of advice.
grazie mille
I am done. The end.

We stayed in Minori several nights in March, several years ago. Minori is an overall smallish town, but we enjoyed walking around, especially around the waterfront. Our very favorite spot was the Sal de Riso bakery/restaurant. Every meal and apertivo we had there was great. And the pasteries are spectacular.

Per favore dateci consigli (Please give us advice)
“Prego consigliamo” is incorrect. It literally means “please we give you advice”.

Grazie Roberto, I suspected that my grammar was incorrect.
Have you ever been to either Ischia or Minori in March and might you have some travel advice for either?

I hope that Ischia has all the flood and landslide damage from that awful event last week cleared up and rebuilt before you visit...

What do you like to do? What's on your list already?
I would certainly be hiking while the trails are less crowded and the sun less intense.
I'd pick a weekday and hire a driver to take me around since the roads may not jammed like most of the year.
From Minori you can hop on a bus to Vietri or Salerno to take the train to Pompeii or south Paestum. If you go this route you have a short walk from the Trenitalia station to Pompeii (around 15 minutes).
In neighboring Cetara, there are some excellent restaurants but check opening info.

Been to both in March a few times. Could be warm and sunny or it could be cold and rainy. There can also be landslides. You never know.

Grazie Rachele, actually your having had repeat March visits speaks for itself as an endorsement.
