At exactly 10am on a warm Saturday morning, I boarded the Doremi , part of the Larnaca Napa Sea Cruises fleet. The sky was cloudless, the sea crystalline, and the wind blowing lightly as the waves lapped the distant shoreline. Below the glass bottom of the boat, the deep blue shimmered like oil paint; above us, planes passed low and loud every 20 minutes as they descended toward Larnaca airport.
