Serifos

Boasting one of the most steep and impressive Choras (main town) in the Cyclades, Serifos offers a raw Aegean experience with its untouched nature and golden beaches. For yacht charter guests, the main port of Livadi is a secure haven with lively waterfront cafes. On blue cruise itineraries, the rusty loading docks reflecting the island's rich mining history and the famous Psili Ammos beach are must-sees. On this characteristic island, you can crown your day with local "revithada" (chickpea stew) and fresh seafood at the tavernas tucked away in the labyrinthine streets of Chora.
