Music on the Rocks in Positano
During the day, Positano, Italy, is an engaging town of white homes and beautiful flowers lined in tiers against a mountain-side cliff, pressed right against the sea. It’s a place reserved for pedestrians only, so there’s not the distraction of any cars and trucks. It’s a place where musicians have come to compose music and write lyrics, to relax in a place that may seem impossibly idyllic and whose relaxed nature has been captured on film for movies, such as “Under the Tuscan Sun.”
Strolling through the town will bring you to many breath-taking sights of the sea and architecture. At night, though, most likely you’ll be wondering if there’s any place to go? Any drinks in Positano? Any dancing? Is there a nightlife here on the edge of the sea?
No doubt you’ll find recommendations that will direct you to Music on the Rocks , a restaurant and club located practically on the water. The nightspot is open to the sea, and while it may be one of the few (if not only) options in Positano, this is not at all a bad thing. There’s great music here and strong drinks. Like most clubs, the crowd doesn’t arrive until late; however, the lines may be long if you wait. The common wisdom from past club-goers is to dress well and arrive slightly early, or arrive even earlier and go upstairs to have dinner at the restaurant. The drink prices may rival those of New York, but you’ll have an unbelievable atmosphere — large open windows to the sea, rock formations, terrific bartenders, and plenty of people who are relaxed and fun. With stunning views of the ocean and night skies, it’s an incredible place to dance as well.
The club draws in not only locals and tourists, but people eager for late night dancing from all over southern Italy. Like any night club, it’s more crowded on Friday and Saturday nights. The place, though, is not likely to get really busy until 12:30 a.m. or even 1 a.m., but it’s open until four in the morning, by which time visitors will be ready to return to the Positano hotels of their choice where they can sleep as late as they’d like.
