Slightly expensive
In a nutshell
I could live there!
Toshioohsako Says: The Citadel of Calvi is a place you can enjoy the sea-view from different angles. You can have a harbor view, a view of the Calvi Bay with mountains, a wide sea-view which takes you as far as the horizon.
Nice2004 Says: Take the train from Calvi station along the coast to Ile Rousse. You could stop off on the way if you like at a fabulous little beach called St Restitude where you have to clamber down the side of a hill to reach - but it's worth it!Make sure you get your timings right on...
Nice2004 Says: The Citadelle of Calvi is one of its main attractions and definitely a 'must see'. Built at the end of the 15th century it dominates the town. Wander around its narrow streets and hunt out the supposed birthplace of Christopher Colombus. The foreign legion also have a base...

Johno77 Says: The Island of Corsica is quite large and I'd recommend to hire a car and explore some of it. We were only there for a week, and there's lots more I'd like to see.You'll see some amazing views and places and the best thing is it's all at your own pace.The roads are relatively...

Hotel Balena: Great Calvi Hotel
Vieri4 Says: I stayed for a week at the Hotel Balena which is situated right in front of the harbour at Calvi.The location is excellent you are literally the centre point of the town, although gutted not to get a room facing at the front, out across the bay I was just as happy with the...
CAMPING DOLCE VITA: A WONDERFUL CAMPINGSITE
eden_teuling Says: A PLEASANT, QUIETLY SITUATED, PERFECT CAMPING GROUND! Although the camping is situated outside the city one of the local bakers is there early in the morning (and once again after 5 o'clock in the afternoon) with all kinds of fresh bread.The camping has a restaurant and a...
Johno77 Says: As I mentioned before we stayed in a villa not far out of the centre of Calvi - the villa was excellent and it was fully equiped with all appliances.I did spot a few hotels when we were around and about - but I did notice there was an abundance of caravan/camping sites all...
Psife Says: Youth hostel in Calvi although some of the guests when I stayed there could hardly be called youths. A little rundown although the manager was very nice and spoke several languages almost fluent (english, french, italian).There were no curfew and there's an old Internet...
Restaurant U Minellu: Don't miss Corsican food!
Toshioohsako Says: This is a typical local food serving Corsican food. You will enjoy eating at this restaurant. It is right on a little side-street next to the famous Santa Maria Church. Servers are freindly and the food is good and please book a table at the terrace. local salad and fish...
Calvi Harbour: If sea food's your thing you'll love it!
Johno77 Says: The restaurants in Calvi harbour are all very similar they all have great fish menus and include some good steaks but you will pay a little more for their location.A little further back you can get the same quality without the view for a little less Euro.Average is about 15E...
U Trinighellu....The Small Train of Corsica
bigsheep Says: Not far from the tourist office, just off the harbour, this little train will take you on a beautiful scenic ride to all parts of Corsica. It is an experience not to be missed.The line is about 115 years old and is probably one of the best ways to explore the stunning...
Johno77 Says: Whist in Calvi I'd recommend to hire a car, fortunately our travel agents included this in our deal but there are the usual hire car companies over there.In a week I only saw 2 taxis and both were en-route, I only saw a few coaches which were for private day trips rather...
Johno77 Says: It wasn't easy for me to find a holiday to Corsica , I spent hours days and weeks on the internet until I found a company call 'Corsican Places' who specialise in villa holidays to Corsica.It takes no longer than 2 hours to get to Calvi and with only one flight a week going...
Johno77 Says: The beach at Calvi is 6 kms of fine white sands with clear sea - and most of all it's quiet. Not in the sense that people don't go there but there isn't the constant hum a of a speed boat pulling people round on an inflatable oversized banana.There is however the windsurfers...

Calvi - a lovely place to visit
We have been to Calvi 2 years in a row for our main summer holiday and have loved it. It was a wonderful sandy beach stretching for miles, the sea is very shallow and safe for children. The town has...

Well what can I say about this beautiful place? I could lie and say it was awful and that I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy, if only to keep it as unspoilt by tourism as it is now. A little...

This is my fourth visit to Corsica. I used to come to this beautiful island for holiday when I was working in Paris. I used to visit more often the south region of Corsica, cities like Ajaccio,...

Calvi is what I regard a special town on the northern coast of Corsica. The Citadel is the main attraction of the town and is home to the Foreign Legion. The Citadel is worthy of a visit during the......

Calvi - a jewel on a beautiful island.
To approach Calvi from the sea is a brilliant experience. The backdrop of the mountains and the old town guarded by the ancient Citadel make a perfect framework for the pastel-shaded houses and the......
