Sirenuse

The Sirenuse (also known as Li Galli) are a small group of rocky islets off the Amalfi Coast in Campania, Italy, located a short distance from the village of Positano.

From the shoreline at Positano and other coastal vantage points the three islets present a distinctive, jagged silhouette against the sea; they are a common subject for coastal photography and boat trips. The largest islet, Gallo Lungo, dominates the group while two smaller islets sit nearby.

The islets have long been noted on maritime charts and in local tradition; they have attracted private owners and artists in the 20th century but remain largely uninhabited and undeveloped.

Situated in the Gulf of Salerno off the Amalfi Coast, the Sirenuse lie just off Positano in Campania and are visible from many points along the coastline.

• Visibility and location: Located between the islands of Capri and the Amalfi Coast, the islets are visible from Positano and nearby coastal viewpoints and are notable for their steep, rocky profiles.
