The citadelle of Calviis amazing place. You can reach it easily by walking through the rock ladders that connect the downpart of the city with many restaurants and shops. The citadelle is the old fortified city, governed during the centuries by Genova (Italy), Corsica, Great Britain and France. Many wars occurred in behind the walls that you can see and touch, it's emotional. The citadelle has of course an amazing view on Calvi and on the gulf, perfect for taking many photos and at the sunset time is even better. Last note, the citadelle corseves many original houses and the church, and now some very nice restaurant and bar are present.

A fortified city like multiple others on the island, but one for sure worth exploring. You’ll find old buildings and get nice views on the bay. But surprisingly enough do not expect many bar/restaurants there as they’re mostly located in the “new” city above. With one exception: “chez Tao”; emblematic piano bar that host DJ sets late at night. Sometimes it’s just not worth it but sometimes the atmosphere is just crazy.

An interesting place to visit. A bit more than a hilltop fort, more of a secure settlement. It's occupied by various families many of whom have lived there generations. There are two churches, a couple of cafes and tourist souvenir shops. The French Foreign Legion have a museum there, admission free. There are spectacular views from many different parts of the perimeter walls/battlements overlooking Calvi Bay on one side and Point Revelato on the other. Access is free although it is a steep climb to start with. Worth a visit, at least once.

The top of the citadel was a great place to climb on during a cloudy day. I would say that the citadel would be cooler maybe with a couple more restaurants and bar, as there is not that much to do once you climb on top apart from an ice cream place and a couple of shops. Nonetheless, Calvi is great and the citadel as well.
