The harbour was protected by three moles, A, B and C on the plans. They created a basin of 270 x 150 m., with an entrance that was 90 m. wide. The moles were 5.20-5.30 m. wide and c. 1 m. higher than the sea-level. Today moles B and C are for the most part submerged, while mole A is covered by a modern mole. Along the moles were breakwaters, partly still visible next to mole C. On the intersection of moles A and B may have been a lighthouse. In the harbour a flat stone was found with a hole in the middle (0.60 x 0.40 m.), possibly an anchor.
