Fair Havens. A harbor on the southern shore of the island of Crete. Acts 27:8-10; Acts 27:21. It is about midway between the eastern and western ends of the island, and is still known as Kalous Limionas, or "Fair Havens." It is a fair winter harbor, though not as good as Phœnice, or Phœnix, 40 miles westward.
