Plage d'Alga is a secluded cove located on the rugged Punta de la Revellata peninsula, just west of Calvi. The beach is known for its strikingly clear turquoise waters and untouched natural surroundings, with no major developments nearby. Visitors can reach it via a scenic coastal path that winds through maquis scrubland and offers panoramic views of the Gulf of Calvi. The beach itself is pebbly in parts, with rocky outcrops that provide shade and privacy. Snorkeling is popular here due to the excellent visibility and marine life. The atmosphere is peaceful and uncrowded, making it a perfect escape from busier beaches. There are no facilities, so bring your own water and snacks.
