Tourist office Sorrento
The Comune di Sorrento, the municipal authority on Piazza Sant'Antonino, runs no tourist information office of its own. For visitor information its institutional site points to the Azienda di Soggiorno e Turismo Sorrento-Sant'Agnello, the long-standing local tourist board on Via Luigi De Maio, and it lists just 1 such point in the town. The board's own website is currently offline, so the town hall gives a contact but publishes no opening hours for the office. A ferry operator's ticket office at the port, which the town hall also files under tourist information, is set out below alongside it.

Discover Sorrento in detail
Discover Sorrento in detail
The Sorrento guide on Tourist Office gathers what to visit in Sorrento in one place: a one day walk that ties together Piazza Tasso, the clifftop gardens of the Villa Comunale above the Gulf of Naples and the ferry quays of Marina Piccola, with the fishing houses of Marina Grande and the medieval Cloister of San Francesco along the way.
It also picks out the corners that rarely make a first visit, the sunken flour mills of the Vallone dei Mulini and the Roman sea pool at the Bagni della Regina Giovanna, with plain notes on how long the town needs and what is worth booking ahead.
Keep the city and national holiday calendar in mind
Public holidays change the rhythm of a visit more than most travellers expect. Public offices and banks close, museums and shops often move to a holiday timetable and buses, trains and ferries run a reduced service, so a day built around a single errand or crossing can fall apart. Italy fixes its public holidays by law, and 2026 is the first year with twelve of them: Law 151 of 8 October 2025 added the feast of Saint Francis of Assisi on 4 October. Easter Sunday is not a separate entry, because the law already counts every Sunday and then adds the Monday after Easter. On top of the national list the state calendar adds the feast day of each town's patron saint, and in Sorrento that saint is Sant'Antonino Abate, honoured on 14 February.

Local holidays in Sorrento 2026
- 14 February Saint Antoninus (Sant'Antonino Abate), local
The Comune di Sorrento names Sant'Antonino Abate the patron of the city, and the town marks his feast on 14 February with a solemn procession through the centre. The tourist board's own website is offline, so no holiday timetable for its office on Via Luigi De Maio is published, and it is best to check before a public holiday. The Caremar ticket office at the port keeps to the sailing timetable, which thins out on the main holidays.
