Geography

The name suffix sui due golfi (Italian for "upon two gulfs") is referred to the location of Sant'Agata, that lies on a hill between the gulfs of Naples and Salerno. Near its territory, on the coast, is located the natural fjord of Crapolla.[1]

Its main road (SS 145, directly linked to the Amalfi Drive) links Sorrento (6 km far) and Massa Lubrense (4,5 km) with Positano (17 km) and the rest of the Amalfi Coast. Sant'Agata is 24 km far from Castellammare di Stabia, 32 from Amalfi, 57 from Naples and 63 from Salerno.
