Tips

Mountain biking

The Spiaggia del Cavallo Morto, also called Bellavaia, is located halfway between Capo d’Orso and Maiori. The name of this beach derives from a legend according to which, starting from the mid-nineteenth century, dead thoroughbreds were thrown here, but there is also another interpretation according to which a horse accidentally rushed there, when on the mule track there was a great coming and going of quadrupeds.
Due to its location, this horseshoe-shaped rocky beach can only be reached by sea aboard private boats departing from Maiori.

The Cavallo Morto beach, also known as Bellavaia, is one of the many natural paradises that enrich the Amalfi coast. Located between the bay of Erchie and Maiori, the small rocky beach can only be reached by boat, since it is enclosed in a steep cliff
