ERCHIE

Along th coast after Maiori,

going towards Cetara, you get to Erchie, one of the districts of Maiori and a picturesque seaside village, which opens like an amphitheatre on the sea, surrounded on the sides and behind by rock walls rich in vegetation in which houses are also nestled. There is the church of Santa Maria Assunta, which used to be a Benedictine abbey founded in 980 and suppressed in 1451, with valuable tuff decorations. Marina di Erchie is among the most beautiful beaches of the Coast. Eastward, there is an ancient watchtower.
