The Fiord of Furore, Beach inlet between limestone cliffs in Furore, Italy

This natural formation features a shingle beach nestled within vertical limestone walls reaching heights of 100 meters along the Amalfi Coast.

The inlet originated from the Schiato torrent's path through limestone rock, creating a natural harbor that sheltered fishing boats and supported local maritime activities.

The location gained recognition through Roberto Rossellini's 1948 film 'L'Amore,' featuring actress Anna Magnani who later purchased one of the traditional fishing houses.

Access requires descending 200 steps from the coastal highway bridge, with limited morning sunlight reaching the beach due to the surrounding cliffs.

The inlet hosts an annual high diving competition where athletes jump from the 30-meter bridge spanning across the limestone walls.
