Sorrento in May is a riot of colours and scents from the lush nature in which the town is immersed. Along the streets, the scent of orange blossom inebriates the sense of smell and the explosion of peach and lemon trees helps to colour the whole town.
Temperatures on the Sorrento Peninsula finally rise and the weather is ideal for the first swims on the beaches of the Sorrento Coast and also on the Amalfi Coast.
Framing the city's main squares are installations by Manzù, Perez and others accompanying the exhibition "Visioni transversali - nell'arte italiana del ventesimo secolo", dedicated to Italian 20th century painting from 9 April to 26 June (more information at this link).
May is the ideal month to spend a relaxing holiday in Sorrento, enjoying walks and excursions to Pompeii, Naples, Positano and Capri. Temperatures allow both swimming in the sea and walking in the open air without suffering the summer heat, and the city is enlivened by the spring air that prepares all activities to welcome guests from all over the world.
