Calvi (Corsica) - Anyone been there lately?

[CASPALL]

Just wondering if anyone has suggestions for a nice lazy day in Calvi - eg. good lunch and walk around.

Thanks

havnt been recently but it was unchanged for years so doubt its changed much since we went last. Lovely med port with just a few posh yachts in the small harbour. Lovely little restaurants overlooking the boats, a castle used by the Foreign Legion for training. A lovely place and I wish they went there more often. There is a littel train that runs along the coast to the beachs and there is a small beach there as well.

Lots of lovely back streets to explore lovely ice cream coloured houses and churchs. You will love it..

Excelllent place for a fish lunch on the harbour.

Haven't been there for a couple of years but there was a lovely beach where we spent most of the day right near where the ship's tender dropped us. Very handy for the shops & restaurants too. It's one of my favourite ports as it gave us a chance to "recharge the batteries" after all of the sightseeing we had done upto then. We had a really lazy & enjoyable day! You should love it!
