Da Ferdinando

Probably one of the best well priced beach clubs in Positano. Food and drink was fairly pricey - however, the service and atmosphere is great.

The view from the water is stunning! And from 4pm, they have a boat service which takes you from the beach club, directly to the pier! Spent a comfortable 6 hours here!

Fantastic beach club with great service and amenities. We decided to walk from the main beach but they have a water taxi that leaves from near the ferries. We took it leaving the beach club to get some great pictures of Positano. The club is great. Beds umbrellas and towels all provided. Easy to book online. We ordered food and drinks off the beach menu and ate on our loungers. We had the muscles soup that was fantastic, fried Calamari, pasta salad. And later fries and a panini. Definitely recommend getting away from the crowds and head to this club.

Great food, cheerful service. Don’t feel tourist at all, had a lovely relaxing vacation lunch. We hiked down from the main road and took the free boat shuttle (runs between 4-6pm) back to the pier.

Tuna Carpaccio, Crispy Calamari, Grilled Prawns, Catch of The Day, Gnocchi, Ice Cream, A pitch of Wine, a Cocktail and coffee. The bill was €166

Kids friendly, they let my toddler napped between two chairs next to our table and offered high chair.

Can’t say how much you need to go here when visiting Positano. It’s a 10 minute walk from the center of Positano and has incredible huge dishes of delicious food, refreshing drinks, beach chairs for rent, and sunshine and clear water. We had the best day at Da Ferdinando

The seafood & pasta were so delicious and lemon tiramisu is the best dessert we ate in this area. Very relaxing vibes that make our day memorable

One of the greatest places here both the beach club and the restaurant / cafe. Staff atmosphere service prices all of it

Staff were so friendly and kind, beach was not crowded and the water was beautiful! End of October after the sea has warmed up all summer it felt like a pool! Refreshing but not cold at all. And there was a little dog who would come around and lay under your chair for some pets! Delicious sandwiches brought right to our chair and the lemon spritzes were amazing!

Spent the day at Fornillo beach at Da Ferdinado. Good value for sunbed and towels and service and food was top notch. Best beach day experience I've had bar none would highly recommend. Sandwich we order for lunch was 👍

Very goos food and great beach to chillax on! Had some great seats in front of the water and was not super busy so service was fast!

Has a great time at this beach club! I had actually mixed up the day and missed my reservation but they were very accommodating and didn't charge me for my own mistake. Drinks and services were great - food was a bit bland and my shrimp was overcooked but a very fun day!

Had the BEST time at Da Ferdinando beach club! We had difficulty booking online because we needed an Italian ID number, but we asked our hotel to book for us and we were able to get us booked for front row chairs without issue. When we arrived, we were greeted kindly and they even gave us a little slush. They took us down to the chairs and show us how everything worked. The views were perfect. This beach is so quiet and relaxing. Everyone on the beach was so kind. We loved it so much, we tried to book again for the next day, but they were full (good for them!) getting drinks was easy. You ordered at the bar and they brought them to you. We also had a sandwich, it was delicious! Being from Chicago, I’m used to “beach food” but this was incredible restaurant quality food. Wished we could’ve gone a second day. Avoid the tourist traps of the other beaches and come here instead!

We spent a day on the beach so came here for lunch as it was easier than heading into the main area in Positano and it was a very pleasant surprise. We ordered a couple of dishes but the prawns and zucchini pasta were knock out. I couldn’t stop eating the spaghetti, it’s a as simply delicious. So much so I’d go back just for that. The prawns were clearly fresh and well cooked. Service was pretty swift and friendly too. Check this place out if you want to grab a tasty lunch

Gorgeous day at the beach. We reserved online in advance the last parasol one row back from the front and felt very lucky - it was perfect and worth it completely. Relaxed, charming service, reasonable prices, spectacular setting. Coming to Fernandos made our trip! Thank you x

Da Ferdinando is a gem with the best location in town, offering a lively atmosphere enhanced by great music and vibrant vibes. The food is exceptional, with standout dishes including the excellent octopus salad. The melon, prosciutto, and burrata dish was a particular highlight—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced.

If you’re looking for a place that combines a fantastic location with top-notch food and a great ambiance, Da Ferdinando is definitely a must-visit.

This is an amazing place. We went for delicious pasta with fish ragout and with octopus & cherry tomatoes. FANTASTIC! 😍 The staff was very friendly, to enjoy the scenery we booked two beach loungers as well (20€ front row, 15€ 2nd row, in the afternoon cheaper). I loved the espresso as well in their nice nice espresso mugs, which you are able to buy.

For our 1st full day in Positano we went to Da Ferdinando Beach club and really enjoyed our day there!! Good service, good vibes, and delicious food! I was looking forward to spaghetti alla Nerano and it did not disappoint! Great start to our vacation!

Booked online and enjoyed it so much we booked for the next day too. You can wave down the staff to order drinks and food. The prices are standard for Positano, meaning more expensive, but the we found the portions were large and the quality was very good. There was some inconsistency in the food between the two days (different portion sizes or items included). We enjoyed the parma ham plate, tuna salad (pasta), and calamari. We brought our own water and a few snacks, which they didn't seem to mind. Bring a towel - they're 5 euros to rent. Food is also a couple euros cheaper per item if you eat in the restaurant.

Loved this place so much we came 3 days in a row. It’s not on the main Positano beach so it’s way nicer and more relaxing. The vibe here is awesome, all the staff are super friendly and funny. The food is good too, it’s fairly priced considering Positano pricing. Definitely recommend!

Visited Positano for a day and someone had recommended that we try this place as it’s away from the main beach (this is on fornillo beach). Staff were friendly. Views were BEAUTIFUL. Definitely a more quiet beach which is what we love. We got the lobster linguini and the spaghetti with clams. Both were AMAZING. They tasted so fresh and authentic. Super delicious. We also got a cafe crema which was the best one we’ve had so far on our trip in Italy. It is a little bit more on the pricy side (paid 69€ including drinks) but I would definitely pay that again if that means I get to eat this lovely food. This was a little dog that walked around the bar, she was so cute. If you love animals this won’t bother you.. she didn’t bark or bother anyone. Occasionally she would bring us a ball for us to throw lol she reminded us of our dog back home. Be aware though that Google Maps will take give you the LONG route to get here. If you come along the coast of the mountain from the main beach it will take you straight there and only take about 10 minutes.

Cutest family run beach and restaurant. You can reserve a sunbed for the whole day and their water taxi takes you back and forth for free. Food was also delicious and super fresh. They get the seafood first thing in the morning direct from the boats at sea. We had the turbot, shrimp carpaccio, mussels, salt and pepper shrimp. The spaghetti alla nerano was also soooo simple and tasty. Our kids were literally fighting over the zucchini in the dish.
