Minka of Southampton - Cruising Log - Paphos, Cyprus

Paphos, Cyprus

Minka of Southampton - Cruising Log

Edmund Wigan

Tue 2 Sep 2014 08:29

Position 34:45.281N 32:24.555E

Minka and I have been quiet for a while as we passed through Turkish waters.

We are now legally in Cyprus. Paphos is a port of entry and we have cleared in. We had to see the Marine Police, Health, Customs and the Harbour Master. All very friendly and helpful once found.

Paphos is not the easiest place to find a berth. I went alongside this large catamaran but found out later that the orange buoy is a lazy line so you can back into a tatty quay just in front of some police boats.

Now on my way to Larnaca via an anchorage near Limmassol.
