Here it is: Cetara. It is the first true, authentic village on the coast. It offers a taste of how the Amalfi Coast could have been before the tourist invasion. In short, an unpretentious place, a charming fishermen’s nest, with pastel-colored houses and an excellent local gastronomy visible on the signs of the shops selling tuna fish and anchovy sauce (to take home as a delicious souvenir). Enjoy the atmosphere that is anything but confusing, sit at the tables of the restaurants of the marina and order a plate of fresh fish. At the end of the meal, do not be surprised if, together with your espresso, a glass of Pernod arrives on the tray: it is a custom imported by the Cetarese fishermen who emigrated in the past to Sete, the twin French fishing center.
