Unfold Serifos

Serifos is an island of quiet strength and natural elegance. Defined by its iron-rich land and sculpted by wind and light, it carries a raw beauty that feels deeply authentic. Rocky hills descend into calm bays, while the clarity of the Aegean reveals beaches of striking variety — from soft sands to wild, pebbled coves, each with its own character.

The island’s villages follow the timeless rhythm of Cycladic architecture. Whitewashed houses, blue accents, and marble paths blend effortlessly into the landscape, creating a sense of harmony and balance. Chora, rising above Livadi, offers one of the most captivating views in the Cyclades — a hillside settlement where history, simplicity, and light coexist with elegance.

Rooted in a rich past of mythology, mining, and devotion, Serifos remains a place of depth rather than display. Close to Athens yet untouched in spirit, it invites visitors to slow down, explore with intention, and experience summer as a state of calm — balanced, grounded, and enduring.

Livadi, the island’s harbor, is both welcoming and serene. Along its shoreline, cafés, bakeries, and tavernas sit beside a sheltered beach, shaping a gentle daily rhythm of swims, walks, and unhurried evenings. From here, ancient paths lead inland, while the sea opens routes to hidden coves and quieter shores.
