Sorrento and the Amalfi coast offers opportunities to explore a vast array of geographical curriculum areas including plate tectonics, natural hazards, coastal and tourism management to name but a few. The stunning setting of the Bay of Naples with towering cliffs overlooking villages dotted along the coastline has an enduring appeal. This is further enhanced by the presence of the towering and imposing Mount Vesuvius, casting an intriguing shadow over the landscape it has shaped for millennia.

Then, take a stunning drive along the Amalfi coastal road or walk along the Path of the Gods to learn more about the dramatic coastline.
There are also fantastic human geography studies to explore on your school trip. Tourism is a crucial part of the economy in the Sorrento region, and Sorrento is a prime example of a popular Italian resort that attracts international visitors.
