Extraordinary panorama from the heights of Capu di a Conca above the Gulf of Calvi.

History Antiquity [Edit | Edit source text] Little is known about early historical settlement, but Phoenicians, Greeks and Etruscans already had settlements in the area of today's Calvi. The Romans built a settlement in the area of the lower town called Sinus Caesiae (possibly also Sinus Casalus), from which the current name Calvi is said to be derived; another source refers to the Latin word "calvus" for the place name of Calvi, which means "bald" and insofar as the name goes back to the originally uncultivated and uninhabited bare rock on which a citadel was later built. Middle Ages [Edit | Edit source text] After Saracen raids, Pisa, to whom Corsica was awarded by the Pope, occupied the city in the 11th century. After disputes between Pisa and the Republic of Genoa over ownership of the island, a turbulent period followed with alternating rule between Corsican nobles, Genoa and the Crown of Aragon. In 1278, the inhabitants of Calvi asked Genoa for support against the local nobles. Calvi thus fell under the influence of Genoa, which expanded the citadel of Calvi (and also that of Algajola), granted Calvi an autonomous status and granted the people of Calvi a number of privileges. The inhabitants thanked Genoa with loyalty, even during the struggle for independence. Even today, the Latin motto Civitas Calvi semper fidelis ("The city of Calvi is always loyal") can be seen at the entrance to the upper town. Modern times [Edit | Edit source text] In the 16th century, Calvi resisted attempts to conquer the city by the Corsican freedom fighter Sampiero Corso and his allies, the Turks and French. In the 18th century, there was a brief period of Corsican independence under Pascal Paoli, which ended with the French taking power. When Paoli attempted to bring Corsica back under his influence with the support of the Kingdom of Great Britain, Calvi was largely destroyed by the British fleet in 1793.

Calvi is located 95 km from Bastia and 24 km from L'Île-Rousse on the Gulf of Calvi. The city consists of the lower town, where the town hall, the market square and the important marina are located, and the upper town, which is dominated by the governor's palace and the citadel.

Calvi is a French port city on the northwest coast of Corsica and the capital of the Balagne region. With 5,746 inhabitants, it is the fifth largest municipality in Corsica. Calvi is located 95 km from Bastia and 24 km from L'Île-Rousse on the Gulf of Calvi. The city consists of the lower town, where the town hall, the market square and the important marina are located, and the upper town, which is dominated by the governor's palace and the citadel. There are seven ports in Corsica that are served by transport ships or ferries from the French (Marseille, Toulon, Nice) or Italian (Savona, Genoa, La Spezia, Livorno, Piombino) coasts and from Sardinia (Santa Teresa di Gallura, Porto Torres, Palau). These are L'Île-Rousse, Calvi, Propriano, Ajaccio, Bonifacio, Bastia and Porto-Vecchio. Ferry service in Calvi has now been suspended.

Calvi beach is truly unique in Corsica: a long stretch of sand, mountain views, a view of a citadel, a pine forest and easy access to the city. It really offers many advantages and we like the combination of nature and city. Here the city does not dominate the beach. No skyscrapers. We warn you, however, that it is crowded in summer…

Don't underestimate this tour! Walking time ascent 3 hours, descent 2 hours. A bit of rock scrambling.
