  From  Easton's  1897  Bible  Dictionary  [easton]: 
 
  Patara 
  a  city  on  the  south-west  coast  of  Lycia  at  which  Paul  landed  on 
  his  return  from  his  third  missionary  journey  (Acts  21:1,  2). 
  Here  he  found  a  larger  vessel,  which  was  about  to  sail  across 
  the  open  sea  to  the  coast  of  Phoenicia.  In  this  vessel  he  set 
  forth,  and  reached  the  city  of  Tyre  in  perhaps  two  or  three 
  days.
