The small port, San Damianu, housed a Roman port dropped from 500 to 600 BC to the twelfth century, after date will be built a defensive tower.

It is possible to anchor in the cove formed by the pier which can accommodate only small boats.
The surf is unpleasant by westerly wind.

Le petit port, San Damianu, abritait un port romain abandonné entre 500 et 600 aprés JC jusqu'au XIIème siècle date à laquelle sera construite une tour de défense.

Il est possible de mouiller dans l'anse formée par la jetée du port qui ne peut abriter que des petits bâteaux.
Le ressac reste désagréable par vent d'Ouest.

Algajola was a position Genoese advanced in front of Calvi. The 1st houses correspond to the sites prehistoric and protohistoric of Tepina-Cocani and to the site of Mount St. Joseph.

The site is very picturesque but you must anchor at a distance and without any protection.
