Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from seaward, watch the rocky edges on either side of the bay. Exposed to W and NW winds including the libeccio. Calvi harbour lies 2.9 NM to the NE as a solid refuge.
Practical
No services in the bay. Sand gives good hold. Fuel, water and full marina services at Calvi 2.9 NM NE, or Port Eugene Ceccaldi at Ile Rousse 6.7 NM NE.
Ashore
The Revellata lighthouse stands on the cape to the west. The coastal path from Calvi to the Revellata passes above the bay and gives views over the Balagne coastline.
Story
The waters off the Revellata are used by the Stareso oceanographic station, run by the University of Liege since 1972, for continuous study of Mediterranean posidonia meadows.
