The Mykonos to Serifos ferry route takes you from one of the Cyclades’ most visited islands to one of its most quietly rewarding. Mykonos needs little introduction — its whitewashed lanes and cosmopolitan harbour are well known. Serifos is something different: a rugged, unhurried island where the pace slows and the crowds thin out. The crossing connects these two very different worlds, and the journey across open Aegean water is a pleasure in itself. Ferries operate from March to October, so plan your trip within that window.

Tips for the Mykonos–Serifos Ferry
- The ferry approach into a Greek island harbour is often the most beautiful part of the journey – get onto the bow deck 15–20 minutes before arrival.
- Do not leave valuables unattended in luggage – ferry saloons are busy places and opportunistic theft, while rare, does occur.
- When booking a multi-island itinerary, save a PDF or screenshot of each confirmation; email may not load reliably when you are at a small island port.
- On catamaran services, lower deck seats tend to be calmer in rough seas but can feel enclosed; upper deck seats offer more natural light and better views.
- In Serifos, the hilltop Chora perched dramatically above the port is one of the most striking capital towns in the Cyclades, with chapels, churches, and windmills scattered through its whitewashed lanes. The island’s beaches are never overcrowded, and the walking trails connecting them reward those who prefer to explore on foot.
