A warm breeze pushes salt across the catamaran as it eases out of Ayia Napa harbour, the villa-lined coast slipping into cliffs and sea caves. Guests settle on sun decks while the captain points toward the low, ghostly skyline of Famagusta — the famed Varosha quarter — receding into the eastern horizon.
