According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul was shipwrecked on the island of Malta on his way to Rome. There is no confirmation in Paul's own epistles of either the appeal to Caesar or the journey to Rome, and Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that some dismiss the account of Paul's hazardous sea journey in Acts 27:1-28:14 as novelistic fiction. On this view, there was no shipwreck on Paul's way to Rome.

Paul encountered a shipwreck while on his way to Rome. The ship, carrying him and other prisoners, was caught in a storm and ultimately ran aground on the island of Malta. Paul and all the passengers survived the shipwreck.
There is no specific mention in the Bible of Paul visiting the island of Crete on his way to Rome. Paul's travels are mainly recorded in the book of Acts, and there is no record of him specifically visiting Crete during his missionary journeys. He did, however, write a letter to Titus, who was in Crete, instructing him on how to organize the church there.
According to tradition, St. Paul was martyred in Rome around 67 AD. There are differing accounts of his travels after Rome, with some sources suggesting he may have traveled to Spain or other parts of Europe before returning to Rome.
Saint Paul's head is believed to be housed in the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls in Rome, Italy. It is kept in a bronze reliquary in the church's Chapel of the Relics.
From Paul's own epistles, it appears that he was in at least one shipwreck earlier in his career. However, some biblical scholars doubt whether the shipwreck when Paul was being sent for trial in Rome, described in Acts of the Apostles, really occurred.

As far as is known, Peter was not involved in any shipwrecks. However, Paul was on a voyage to Rome where he was being taken to stand trial.
In Acts of the Apostles chapter 27, Paul is sent by ship to Rome for his trial. Acts does not say what the name of the ship was.Since there is no confirmation in Paul's letters of the appeal to Caesar and the journey to Rome, some dismiss the account of Paul's hazardous sea voyage in Acts as novelistic fiction. On this view, there was no ship and therefore no name of the ship.
There is not such thing as Sophia's island in Rome. The island in the River Tiber in Rome is called Tiber Island.

Paul was beheaded in Rome.
A:In his Epistle to the Romans, at verse 15:24, Paul says that he that he would stop over in Rome on his way to Spain. He also hoped to visit Rome to spread the gospel there (verse 1:15). Indeed, the Muratorian Fragment states that Paul travelled from Rome to Spain, and Clement of Rome, writing about 96 CE (1 Clement), says that Paul lastly preached in the far reaches of the west (Spain), and Paul would surely have stopped over in Rome before proceeding to Spain. From these sources, it would appear that Paul made a commitment to visit Rome for the reasons stated, and kept that promise before travelling on to Spain.Acts of the Apostles, on the other hand, says that Paul was taken as a prisoner to Rome and spent to whole years there, under house arrest. This voyage seems to be a little early for the tradition that Nero had Paul executed in Rome in 65 CE, since it seems unlikely that Paul would have been tried, acquitted of the charges against him, freed and then later arrested and executed. However, the historicity of the execution tradition is not what is in question, but whether Paul went to Rome of his own free will or under arrest.The voyage and shipwreck described in Acts have been doubted by many theologians, including Hans Joachim Schoeps, who says (Das Judenchristentum) that Acts energetically cultivates the creation of legends and reshapes persons and events according to its own standards and that it has been believed much too readily. This does not mean that the account in Acts is proven to be wrong, but it is quite unlikely to have happened. Thus, we fall back on the reasons given by Paul himself.
