Tap water is safe; carry a bottle because summer stair climbs are not forgiving.
Choose restaurants showing the day’s fish clearly, not menus translated into six languages.
Beach bars are convenient but often priced for the view; eat one street back for better value.

🛡️

Vietri is calm; the real risk is road traffic on narrow coastal bends.
Confirm taxi prices before departure, especially after dinner or from Salerno station.
