Positano is relatively safe and no special preparations should be made. There are some tips from seasoned tourists. For example, for blondes going on holiday alone. They need to prepare for increased attention on the part of hot Italians.
For those who have decided to rent a car, drivers are advised to be careful, as the roads are narrow and winding, with many steep climbs. And children and animals don't like to obey traffic rules, and can jump under the wheels of a car unexpectedly.
A common problem for tourists in Positano is petty theft, which happens more often on the beach. Accordingly, don't leave your valuables unattended when you go swimming and, better still, use the hotel safes to store large sums of money, jewellery and expensive equipment.
