Morning light splits the Mediterranean as the Medusa pushes off from Protaras Jetty — teak deck warming beneath your feet, sea-salt on the breeze and the coastline unspooling like a map. The first hour slides past Fig Tree Bay’s bleached sand and the dramatic cliff-top chapel, then the boat threads sea caves and natural arches where limestone has been carved by centuries of waves.
