Presqu'île remarquable à l'Ouest de Calvi s'avançant de 6,5 km dans la mer sur 150 m de hauteur et supportant le phare du même nom, l'un des plus importants de Corse.

La "grotte des veaux marins" sur la falaise W n'abrite malheureusement plus de phoques moines depuis 1979. 

Autres curiosités du coin : le Centre d'Etudes Océanographiques à l'extrémité de la presqu'île et les traces de peuplement néolithique de la Punta di l'Oscelluccia.

Deux mouillages sont possibles en baie de la Revelatta. Un au Sud dans la baie elle même plus ouvert au libeccio qui franchi le col au dessus ou un dans la petite anse de l'Oscelluccia au nord.

Ne pas remonter plus vers le nord ( le phare de la Revellata ) le mouillage est interdit autour d'un centre de recherche.
