5Serifos

Rugged, raw, and proudly unpolished, Serifos is an island that wears its authenticity openly. Once shaped by mining history, the island has retained a strong sense of independence and character. 

Chora rises dramatically above the port, its narrow lanes still echoing with daily life rather than souvenir shopping. Beaches are mostly wild and undeveloped, shared with local families rather than crowds.

Serifos attracts travelers who appreciate simplicity — conversations in kafeneia, fresh bread from village bakeries, and evenings spent under the stars. The island’s beauty lies not in perfection, but in honesty.
