A beautiful, easy going place, Calvi is a dream destination for those who love Corsica: sea, mountains and a citadel all in one go.

My suggestion:
I suggest you hire a bike, so that you can explore its nooks and crannies without having to worry about where to park. You can also spend time lazing on one of the many beaches that line the coast.
My review

You certainly shouldn't miss out Calvi during your trip to Corsica. Calvi is a town brimming with charm. Its lined with stunning houses and buildings, yet maintains a village feel. Its narrow lanes and selection of boutiques make it a pleasant town to explore.

The sea meets mountain scenery is also another big plus. You can go for strolls, hang out at the harbour, soak up some rays, hire bikes, visit the Medieval citadel...do them all for a fun-packed stay.

Calvi also has its own airport. Flying over Calvi and its surrounds is a sheer delight. It's a superb, out of the ordinary way to discover the area and admire its magical landscape.
