ἡ δὲ θάλασσα ἡ Νεκρὰ πάσχει παντὶ ὕδατι ἄλλῳ τὰ ἐναντία· ἐν ᾗ γε τὰ μὲν ζῶντα πέφυκεν οὐ νηχόμενα ἐποχεῖσθαι, τὰ δὲ θνήσκοντα ἐς βυθὸν χωρεῖν.

The sentence has an initial nominal predicate (πηγὴ ἐστίν) with τούτου τοῦ ὕδατος as its genitive dependent, followed by a coordinated participial clause whose subject is the understood πηγή. The final phrase πρὸς λιμένι is textually/semantically unusual; λιμένι is treated as a dative of location or goal, with ὀνομαζομένῳ agreeing with it and Πανόρμῳ in apposition.
