Acts 27:11-13

New Testament for Everyone

¹¹ But the centurion put his faith in the helmsman and the ship-owner rather than in what Paul had said. ¹² Unfortunately, the harbor was not suitable for wintering, so most people were in favor of going on from there to see if they could get to Phoenix, a Cretan harbor which faces both south-west and north-west. They would then be able to spend the winter there.

The storm and the angel

¹³ Well, a moderate southerly breeze sprang up, and they thought they had the result they wanted. So they lifted the anchor and sailed along, hugging the shore of Crete.
