Positano in March — Full Picture
March is the turn of the season on the Amalfi Coast — milder, greener, and starting to wake up. It averages 15°C/7°C with about 95mm of rain over 10 days.
From late March, many hotels and restaurants begin reopening for the season, ferries start ramping up, and the hills turn green with spring growth. Early March is still quiet and partly closed, so check openings; by month's end the village feels noticeably more alive.
The weather is improving but still changeable, with showers and the odd bright, warm day. The sea is still too cold for swimming, but it's a fine month for the Path of the Gods (cooler hiking, green hills) once the trail and bus connections are reliable, and for exploring the village without crowds.
Prices remain low to moderate, and crowds are light — a good-value window for those happy to trade guaranteed swimming weather for a quieter, cheaper, greener Positano. April brings the season properly to life.
What to Wear & What to Pack
Early spring, milder — around 15°C/7°C. Layers and a light jacket, with a waterproof for showers. The village starts reopening late in the month. Sea still too cold to swim.
