Serifos, a Hipster Island, top beaches and sights, Cyclades | exotic Greece (Σέριφος)
Serifos is a Greek island in the Aegean Sea, located in the western Cyclades, south of Kythnos and northwest of Sifnos.
In Greek mythology, Serifos is where Danaë and her infant son Perseus washed ashore after her father Acrisius, in response to an oracle that his own grandson would kill him, set them adrift at sea in a wooden chest. When Perseus returned to Serifos with the head of the Gorgon Medusa, he turned Polydektes, the king of Serifos, and his retainers into stone as punishment for the king's attempt to marry his mother by force.
Serifos is an island with beaches that cover all tastes. Rocky beaches, beaches with small pebbles and golden sand beaches with crystal-clear waters, beaches with road access, beaches with an access through picturesque paths and others that are accessible only by the sea. Picturesque villages built amphitheatrically on the hill slopes...
Miner settlements where the traces of the mining activity of the past years are still evident... and among them, the capital of Serifos, Chora, the first thing the visitors see when they arrive by boat, which seems to have climbed on the rock!
Serifos ist eine griechische Kykladeninsel. Ein Urlaubsort für alle, die lieber hinter die glitzernden Fassaden der berühmten Ressorts schauen. Die Szenerie verändert sich mit dem Licht. Wer schroffe Landschaften mag, wird die scheinbar versteinerten Hügel der Insel lieben. Im Hafen von Livadi werden Erinnerungen an vergangene, unschuldige Zeiten wach.
A quintessentially Cycladic island of brilliant light, clear water and steadfast traditions
Some islands remain essentially unchanged. Serifos is one of them; definitely a holiday destination for those looking for something above and beyond the glittery façade. The landscape here changes with the light. If you like rugged countrysides, you’ll be mightily impressed by the wonderful shapes nature has sculpted into the hillsides. In the port of Livadi, memories of older, more innocent times will come flooding back.
You’ll fall in love again at the beaches with their blue-green waters. Then there’s Hora, the island’s town, a vision in brilliant white cascading down its conical hill. There is a special gravitas to this place, felt by anyone seeking holidays untouched by mass tourism.
What to do on Serifos
Award-winning beaches
Take your pick; blue or green, shallow or deep waters, sand or pebbles, shaded or sun-drenched, blessed by a chapel or garnished with its very own taverna. Lia, Koutalas, Vagia, Ganema, Kalo Ambeli, Psili Ammos, Sykamia. You’ll need several summers to explore all 40 of Serifos’ officially recognised beaches – though the locals claim the number is actually 72 – unless you come by yacht.
Stairway to the castle
Whitewashed houses cling to each other as they perch on the rim of vertical rocks. Facing east, they seem to tumble down the slope, solid and fluid all at once. They rest on the scattered ruins of the ancient town, referred to by Xenophon. A stairway leads higher and higher to the Venetian castle that encloses the chapels of Agia Varvara, the Saviour, Agios Konstandinos and Agios Ioannis. The view from here is stunning.
Upstairs-downstairs… in Hora
Greeks and foreigners have bought and renovated many of the abandoned houses in the upper town – Ano Hora – and brought them back to life. The main square, Pano Piatsa, is dominated by the church of Agios Athanasios and the neoclassical Town Hall. At night it becomes one big party as the tables fill with appetisers, ouzo, coffees and other drinks. To avoid the heat, walk down to the lower town – Kato Hora – in the early morning. It’s a Cycladic maze of whitewashed alleys and small courtyards and cascading bougainvillea, a startling contrast with the bare expanse of mountains beyond.
The mining museum
The open-air mining museum, and illuminating chats with former iron miners, will give you insights into the island’s main source of income in years past.
Hidden gems of Serifos
The monastery of the Taxiarchs
Crenellations, battlements and high walls make it look more like a mediaeval castle. The most important monastery on the island,
Cyclops’ throne
The throne of Cyclops is at Cape Kyklopas, a spectacular location with a panoramic view of the southwestern side of the island. It really does look like a giant armchair and you can’t help wonder just how those seven huge carved boulders got up there.
View from above
At sunset, take the stone path the old miners used between the heliport and Hora and you’ll see a magical side to the island. This is the only spot where you can witness the town from above.

ISLAND of SERIFOS, the MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACH of PSILI AMMOS (GREECE) ????️
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go visit Psili Ammos which is one of the most popular beaches on the Greek island of Serifos and which is located on the east coast, at about 3 km north from the port of Livadi. The name Psili Ammos means soft fine sand and it is definitely the right one, considering its features. In addition to this, the shallow crystalline waters and the tree-lined shore providing shade, make it a suitable beach for children. In fact, this beach has been voted as one of the most beautiful beaches, not only in Greece, but also in Europe according to the British newspaper Sunday Times.
Serifos is a Greek island municipality in the Aegean Sea, located in the western Cyclades, south of Kythnos and northwest of Sifnos. It is part of the Milos regional unit. The area is 75.207 square kilometres and the population was 1,420 at the 2011 census. It is located about 170 kilometres ESE of Piraeus.
Greece is a country in southeastern Europe with thousands of islands throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas. Influential in ancient times, it's often called the cradle of Western civilization. Athens, its capital, retains landmarks including the 5th-century B.C. Acropolis citadel with the Parthenon temple. Greece is also known for its beaches, from the black sands of Santorini to the party resorts of Mykonos.
