The Dominican monk Felix Faber wrote about leaving Cyprus from the harbour of Paphos:

We remained in the harbour of Paphus up to the hour of vespers, when we lifted our ancor and left the port; but the wind was contrary and we beat about all that night on the coast. On the night of Sunday, November 9, we lost sight of the island.
